Great app for ESRD patient
mpm227

Found this app when I started dialysis 5 years ago. While my results from this app are not that good it has motivated me to be compliant with attending my dialysis sessions and I religiously check my lab results to modify my diet. A great motivation tool

Nice tool

Although it is nice to think that recieving a kidney transplant will make life easier, more problems can arise. I myself have been on dialysis for 5 years, and yea a kidney transplant would be great, but unless there's a living donor then a person is going to have to waiting. No person wants to be on dialysis, ichoose helps see risk but one doesn't not get to choose. It's all on availablity.

Great tool

Very useful tool if you are a patient with kidney disease and may need help figuring out whether dialysis or transplant is best for you, or for a doctor or nurse to use with patients to help them understand options.
