A member asked:
What is the life expectancy of a 47 year old woman with stage 5 kidney failure and lupus ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be a long time: This patient needs close attention to both the sle and her chronic kidney disease. Assuming that the kidney failure is related to the lupus and both can be improved things could be good. This requires expert lupus and kidney management.
