I heared the leading causes of kidney failure are diabetes and high blood pressure. Is it true it run in families?
The only common cause of kidney failure I know of that is directly passed down from your parents is PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease). PKD is a disease in which cysts (pouches of fluid) form in the kidneys. More cysts grow and they get bigger as time goes on, eventually leading to kidney failure (Got info from
PKD Foundation: Home) If you know more info about this deadly disease, please let me know.
Does kidney disease run in families?
