I have polycystic kidney and go to dialysis 3 days a week. I also have COPD. The doctors just took myname off the transplant list, because my lungs are so damaged, they say I ,.ptured. I made it through that surgery. Ive now got short term memory lost, but Im alive. I consider myself a lucky lady. I tell my story to anyone that feels like giving up. My surgeon said he another hand helping him that day. Any time I dought my faith, I think back to that awlful  day I was  sent to MUSC in Charleston, South Carolina. What do you think chances of another one forming and ruptering? I worry about this all the time.
Hi, thanks for using Chat Doctor It is understandable to be concerned. Unfortunately with polycystic kidney disease there is always a chance of rupture of one of the cysts. The exact risk is not known. This may present with pain and blood in the urine. It is important to avoid abdominal trauma, movements that may involve twisting the waist.You may also want to consider avoiding food with a lot of salt and protein which may worsen kidney disease. I hope this helps
