One should start preparing for dialysis when creatinine is more than 4 or 5. If the creatinine is more than 4 or 5, the it will increase rapidly and at least 6 months of preparation is needed for creatinine is more than 4 or 5 as proper preparation makes all the difference. If you prepare well, then you will do well in dialysis. If the preparation is not adequate, then the outcomes may not be satisfactory. One important concept that one should understand is preparing for dialysis is actually starting dialysis. there are many patients who are perfectly ready for dialysis but they have been able to postpone dialysis for years or months and this is an ideal situation to be in where one is prepared for dialysis but able to postpone for a long time so that even if the need arises, then he or she will be ready for dialysis.
