Is Polycystic Kidney Disease Serious

Polycystic Kidney Disease is an autosomal dominant disease which runs in family. Is Polycystic Kidney Disease Serious? This question has been asked for thousands times from PKD families.
It is hard to give a general “yes” or “no” to this question. But here are some facts which may give you an understanding about “how serious the Polycystic Kidney Disease is?”

PKD is an autosomal dominant disease, meaning if just one parent has a gene mutation for it, there's a 50% chance of passing it on to a child. There's also a recessive form of the disease that is relatively rare. If both parents are affected, the chance of their child will be 75%.
As the kidney cysts enlarge in number and in size gradually, the nearby kidney tissues will be affected and infected. As a result, the kidneys function will decline and it may develop into Kidney failure eventually.

However, with the dominant form of the disease, kidney failure doesn't normally occur until patients are in their mid-50's and they have to go on dialysisor get a kidney transplant. Good news is that a new developed natural treatment named “Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy” helps shrink the kidney cyst naturally. There are about 120 videos of patients story about PKD treated by this natural remedy, if you have interest, you can leave a message to kidneyask@hotmail.com to get the patient story.
