Suggest Chances Of Survival With Congestive Heart Failure And Kidney Disease
I have been suffering from Congestive Heart Failure for 3 1/2 years. I have both left and right side failure. I am currently on Peritoneal Dialysis as well. I have some good days but many days with low energy and very unwell. I have been told that I am in end stage kidney and heart failure. What is my life expectancy?

Hello
Thanks for posting at HCM.
Life expectancy may vary from person to person and hence cannot be commented upon. It depends a lot upon being regular on medications and dialysis, dirty restrictions, exercise and associated factors. If you are regular with your medications and maintain a fluid restriction of 1.2 liters per day with regular peritoneal dialysis; you will do well and wish of life as well as expectancy will be good. So please stop writing about life expectancy and take proper care of your health.
Wishing you good health
Regards
