A member asked:
I am suffering from end stage kidney failure and on dialysis which is because of high blood pressure can my kidney failure be reversed?

End Stage Kidney: The term itself indicates that you have severe kidney disease. It could only be changed likely by a transplant. Once the kidneys are at your stage they do not improve.

No: Esrd from high blood pressure requiring dialysis will not be reversible. A kidney transplant maybe an option for you.

You may have options: A living donor kidney transplant from a kind relative is probably your best bet: there's no substitute for functioning kidneys. Even the best dialysis isn't equivalent! but, do you know about peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis? You may be able to get more effective dialysis - and more flexibility for your personal life. Ask your nephrologist or dialysis center about home training.
