[|AI|]  HelloThanks for query. You are known diabetic with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). This is termed as Diabetic Nephropathy. Main function of the kidney is to eliminate end products of protein metabolism like urea and creatinine in urine which is carried out by Nephron (Main functional unit in kidney). In diabetic Nephropathy there is damage to the Nephron that results in to accumulation of these waste products in blood. Since you are on regular dialysis these waste products are excreted in urine keeping you healthy and normal. Stooping Dialysis will result in accumulation of these waste products in blood and lead to renal failure and other related complications like hypertension, loss of appetite.swelling of the legs and body etc. Chat Doctor. .
