[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to our site. I am Chat Doctor. Read your query. That is a very significant question and I appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your Quertle fact remains that for a patient of chronic kidney disease, the best possible option is renal/kidney transplant. The options are available like dialysis (on machine) as well as peritoneal dialysis. But they are not as effective. Let's be clear, they are good options, but the best option is kidney transplant. The cost will depend on as per the center of your transplant, so I cannot comment on that fully. And if someone in the family is willing to donate a kidney, it is the best option, cause then you just have to go through a battery of tests to decide who is the best donor. Usually the first degree relatives like parents, siblings and child Chat Doctor. If you like, and if you are interested, I can guide you further.
