Summary of Living Well with Kidney Disease

The first edition of "Living Well With Kidney Disease" was developed and published by the National Kidney Foundation of Southern California. Based on the handbook "When Your Kidneys Fail" (originally published in 1982), this new and updated edition provides detailed information specifically intended for people coping with Kidney Disease and other renal failure, as well as their friends and families. The question and answer format provides a clear and manageable guide for those seeking support and answers. Among the topics covered are the principles of kidney function, methods of treatment, transplantation, and financial resources available to patients. With all of the ramifications of kidney failure and the rise of Chronic Kidney Disease and Type 2 Diabetes, there is a growing population of people afflicted with kidney failure. Although it was written with the patient in mind, family members, friends and health care professionals will also find this handbook a valuable resource.
