@erasmus1952 Welcome to Mayo Connect. We are all patients or family members or caregivers here. We are not medical professional and cannot give medical advice nor diagnoses. What condition led you to be told you have kidney disease, then placed on dialysis? Is your doctor aware you reduced then stopped your dialysis, and what is their comment to you? Have you had bloodwork done recently that would indicate how healthy your kidneys are at this point?

I believe this conversation would be better suited for the Kidney and Bladder discussion group, and would ask @colleenyoung to move it there. This way, there are many other members who would see your question and be able to share their experience with you.

Hi @erasmus1952, I add my welcome to @gingerw's. As suggested, I moved your message to this existing discussion about end-stage renal disease in the Kidney & Bladder group. I did this so you could meet others like @larry1943 @jolinda @gle @kamama94 who have experience with renal failure and dialysis.

I, too, would like to understand what led to your original diagnosis or end-stage kidney disease. Did you wean off of dialysis with your doctor? What tests have you done since ending dialysis?
