Is Kidney Failure Curable?

My wife age 28 years, had a spine problem with L4 disc. Doctors had advised to go on for a surgery. We are afraid for an spine surgery and under gone for a Siddha treatment for 6 months. 20 Days back she had swelling in her feets. We visited the doctors they have ordered for the Blood and Urine test. In the results they find that too much amount of protein leakage in urine and they told that your 2 kidneys have failed. Is that so... What type of treatment we have to take? Is it curable? Please answer my Query.

Nephrologist 's  Response
Most common cause for Renal failure in our country is ignorance innocence and use of treatments like herbal medicines,siddha,unani etc for some other diseases. That's what happened in your case. As the duration of siddha medicine intake is short, probably your kidney condition would be reversible. Don't take these types of medicines and also educate your colleagues. All the best. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
