There are many diseases in humans
Kidney Disease is one of the worst diseases.

The kidneys function to filter blood from the human body. It functions to remove bad components while leaving good components in good blood.

However, when a kidney disease develops, the blood becomes full of waste matter. Additionally, the discharge of water becomes difficult. This causes the lungs to swell, making breathing difficult, brain pressure to rise, and blood pressure to rise. If kidney function deteriorates, you will live your worst life, and if you do not have proper treatment, your life will be over soon.

GFR (glomerular filtration rate, kidney blood filtration rate) is an indicator of kidney function. A normal person has a distribution of 80 to 120 and is defined as the amount (cc) that hangs blood per minute. GFR is calculated based on several assays, including creatinine levels.

< Cause and treatment>
If you have symptoms of inflammation in the kidney (usually with a high fever, in severe cases, lower blood pressure to the urethra), you must treat it with antibiotics. Doctors often make mistakes because they are confused with the flu because they do not initially have lower blood pressure but only have a high fever. Or, because of the flu, the flu virus may penetrate the kidneys and cause inflammation.

Anyway, if you practice, you'll be in big trouble.
Because once the kidney is broken, there is no concept of recovery.
So if you think your kidney is weird, you should go to the hospital immediately to give first aid.

< Hemodialysis if the kidney eventually collapses
If the GFR level is below 10, hemodialysis is required.
Or a kidney transplant. (Except for kidney transplants.)
Hemodialysis has peritoneum and blood vessels.

No matter how you do it,
Without modern medicine, it is a disease that immediately leads to death, and the quality of life falls to the worst.
In the case of hemodialysis, blood from the human body is drained to the outside for four to five hours three times a week and hung through a machine.

Think about it.
I take my entire blood out, grab it, and put it back into my body three times a week for four to five hours
