Dialysis affects a persons quality of life as it makes it harder for them to excercise and work properly. One of the alternatives to dialysis are that the patitant can go on the organ waiting list in hope of eventually getting the new organ needed. :-) Hope this helped you with what you needed to know.
Dialysis is not a permanent solution - the worse the kidney function becomes, the more dialysis is needed, until you're at at a stage where you're in hospital on dialysis full time (which is obviously not a life). Transplants are a more long term solution.
There are around 21,000 people on dialysis in the U.k. The average cost of Dialysis is £30,800 per patient per year. The is just 3% of the NHS' budget. As you can see this is a lot of money, and a lot of people, then you must factor in the amount of professionals needed to carry the procedure out and the resources needed for the process.
