Hello Silva and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist, i can understand your anxiety. Your mother has kidney failure, which will need dialysis or kidney transplant. The cause may be due to diabetic nephropathy, found after a kidney biopsy. High creatinine, high potassium levels, symptoms like breathlessness and high B.P., are indications, for urgent hemodialysis. It's a routine treatment. In the long term, she will need to consider a kidney transplantation. If you've any doubts, you can send them to me, as a direct question. Chat Doctor.  Manga.
