At South Texas Renal Care Group, we recognize that the decision of “which type of dialysis is right for me?” isn’t only about medical necessity — it’s also about your lifestyle, comfort, and independence.

If you’re trying to lose weight, it’s important to make sure you’re targeting fat and not lean muscle mass. This concern is especially relevant for anyone dealing with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Rapid weight changes, whether gains or losses, can have a negative impact on kidney health.
