If you have chronic high blood pressure and it is?

not treated you can also end up with kidney failure. Does anyone know what the symptoms of kidney failure are?

The kidneys are the blood cleaners for your body and when they fail, you are unable to clean your blood. you get very sick and ultimately die from the toxins in your blood. People wind up getting dialysis on a weekly or even daily basis. Dialysis means being hooked up to a machine with your blood diverted into that machine, for hours. The only way to avoid dialysis once kidneys fail is to wait for someone to die and have a kidney transplant.

If you want to stay alive and active, you MUST lower your high blood pressure, immediately. Diet change, daily exercise, eliminating stress, anger management, change jobs if the one you have is stressful... all are crucial. And take any drugs the doc prescribes to reduce blood pressure. Stop eating junk food and salty food. Your life is more important than your food cravings . Or not. It's your life, and your choice.

Kidney failure is not something you want to have happen. You will become very ill, very weak, and go broke from the dialysis expense. You will have to live very close to a hospital to get dialysis, and will become a burden to family. Get the blood pressure down, wayyyy down.

Kidney failure is a late-stage symptom of untreated hypertension. Symptoms appear over time- so sometimes you might not notice them until it is too late. Symtoms include dry skin, swelling of the body- especially in the hands and feet. There are many other symptoms..ask your doc...

High blood pressure can damage the blood vessels in the kidneys if left untreated. That can cause the kidneys to stop eliminating the waste in your body, which in turn can cause higher blood pressure. It's a bad cycle.

Kidney damage can be unnoticeable, and usually is only identified by blood tests testing for serum creatinine, or looking for protein in the urine.

i was in the hospital last year for an infected toe.i had 2 operations to repair a disloctions and a rip in the toe.this was at one hospital then the toe became infected 5 days later.i had another surgery at home in another hospital and they gave me through iv massive doses of a very highly potent antibiotic.they gave me so much that my kidneys almost died.thats a terrible feeling.i had a close friend who was on dialysis for years because of his kidneys had shut down.he had a permanant shunt surgically placed in his left arm to take out his blood to filter out the toxins that had built up in his blood.
