Get your medical advice from your doctor
Please be advised that this is not a medical website. It is a patient support website. We have no doctors or health professionals here, except some who might happen to be members of the support group because they or a family member has Nephrotic Syndrome.
It is impossible to provide useful support without at least some discussion of medical issues, potential treatments, etc. Kids Kidney Research does not under any circumstances advise making medical decisions about treatment without consulting with your own doctors (this includes medications, diet, exercise, supplements, and all aspects of having kidney disease). Nephrology is a very complex subject, and you should not draw any conclusions about your kidney disease or your prognosis from information you obtained on the Internet, including this website.
Please consider the information provided herein as it was intended: to help you understand the terms and concepts you will encounter in your nephrologist's office, dialysis centre or transplant centre, and during the course of your life with Nephrotic Syndrome. We do our best to support members within the framework of conventional medicine. We do not provide information about alternative treatments such as homeopathy, naturopathy, etc.
