Sulekha community - Advice from neighbors and local experts

a friend is urging me to seek alternative to western medicine for my stage X kidney disease. i lived for years comfortably with 2X% kidney function until this past june, when i had a severe infection in my right kidney, which damaged some tissue. the infection (stone related) has been solved, and am now down to about XX% function, though still feel well. i wonder whether your treatment could offer any hope of kidney repair and greater function, or whether it would just address quality of life for the time i have left (several years, i hope). thank you, alice onehoarder
