View allI'm really worried about my father, he's 64 and his doctor suggested dialysis. His potassium level is 4.1. I'm just not sure if he really needs it right now. What do you think I should do?
Dialysis is usually recommended for patients with severe kidney disease or kidney failure. In this case, since the potassium level is 4.1, which is within the normal range (3.5-5.0 mmolL), dialysis may not be immediately necessary based on this information alone. However, the decision to start dialysis depends on various factors such as the overall kidney function, symptoms, and other laboratory values. It is important to follow up with the doctor who recommended dialysis to discuss the specific reasons for the recommendation and to understand the overall management plan for the kidney condition.
