If you have End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), you could require a kidney transplant. Kidney failure is a chronic disease, and understanding the causes and symptoms of kidney problems can be beneficial in preventing or suspecting them before they become too serious.

Signs that a kidney transplant is necessary include:

• Nausea, Vomiting
• Fatigue, weakness, and fluid retention
• Oedema, or swelling of the face, hands, and feet
• Headaches brought on by hypertension
• Itchiness on the skin
• Pale complexion (caused by low iron levels)
• Coffee coloured urine
• Persistent foul breath that is not improved by cleaning your teeth
