My renal failure is not from primary renal disease, but from an aggressive form of lupus which has literally invaded both kidneys and my eyes. I have WAYYYY too much immune system, so much so that my body attacks its own tissue. ITs tough on the ole kidney beans. But Im telling you..I get a chemo therapy treatment 3 or 4 times per year and i just keep clicking right along. As long as the left kidney holds out..Im cool. It is affected but not as much as the right.

Have you tried high doses of fish oil, or any other alternative approaches?


No, I leave it all to the oncologist...who is into alternative medications but says that my chemo will react with a lot of the herbal stuff.
