A member asked:

Hi, my grandfather is suffering from kidney disease. his creatinine level has reached 8.9 today. a homeopathy treatment or dialysis? please suggest.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dialysis,,: I don't know what homeopathic treatments there are, but if he wants to live, a man with a creatinine like that should get dialysis asap. This means that there are build- ups of waste products in his body which affect its function, so get him there as soon as you can. Good luck.
