What happens when your kidneys can no longer do all the work your body needs them to do?
A diagnosis of declining kidney function can bring fear, uncertainty, and a long list of questions. Does kidney failure mean dialysis right away? What do your kidney numbers really mean? What happens next? And can you still live a meaningful life after the diagnosis?
When Your Kidneys Start to Fail is a calm, practical guide designed to help you understand what is happening and prepare for what may come next. Rather than overwhelming you with medical terminology, this book explains kidney failure in clear, everyday language and takes you through the journey step by step.
Inside, you will learn:
• What kidney failure actually means and how kidney function can decline over time
• How to understand creatinine, eGFR, urine albumin, blood pressure, and other important kidney numbers
• What the different stages of chronic kidney disease mean
• What happens when the kidneys can no longer keep up with the body's needs
• Common symptoms and complications of advanced kidney disease
• Why some people can feel relatively well even when kidney disease is severe
• How to prepare for possible kidney replacement treatment before an emergency occurs
• What dialysis is and how hemodialysis differs from peritoneal dialysis
• What everyday life with dialysis may involve
• How kidney transplantation works and who may be considered for it
• What to expect during transplant evaluation, surgery, and recovery
• How to protect the kidney function you still have
• How food, fluids, medications, blood pressure, diabetes, and lifestyle can affect ongoing kidney health
• How to think about dialysis, transplantation, and supportive or conservative care
• How to have more informed conversations with your healthcare team
Most importantly, this book recognizes that kidney failure is not a single moment. It can be a process, and every person's journey can look different.
You may be newly diagnosed. You may be caring for someone whose kidney function is declining. Or you may simply want to understand what kidney failure, dialysis, and transplantation really mean before making important decisions. Whatever brought you here, knowledge can make the road ahead less confusing.
When Your Kidneys Start to Fail does not promise that the journey will be easy. Instead, it helps you understand what is happening, recognize what may come next, and approach difficult decisions with greater clarity.
Because kidney failure can change your life. But a diagnosis does not have to define the rest of it.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento

Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
