If i have chronic kidney disease, will i ultimately needdialysisor a transplant?

No: If you control the factors that caused your chronic disease, then no you will not need dialysis or a transplant. Chronic kidney disase is caused primarily from diabetes and hypertension. If these two medical problems are controlled, then it is unlikely that you chronic kidney disease will worsen.

No: Many people may stay the same, or improve, with control of their blood pressure, wieght loss, etc.

No: Depending on the stage and cause of the chronic kidney disease (ckd), you may not need a dialysis or transplant ever if the causes are controllable such as diabetes or high blood pressure. Unfortunately hereditary diseases are not such an easy answer on the topic as there are larger variations including environmental.

No: Not necessarily. It depends on the cause of the chronic kidney disease, your other health concerns (such as elevated blood pressure), your age, and how long you have had kidney disease. It would be wise to control diabetes, blood pressure, and monitor medication use that could further cause kidney harm to prevent progression to dialysis and/or transplant.
