In chronic kidney disease the treatment the people choose has directly relations with the life expectancy.

What is the life expectancy for people with chronic kidney disease with Diabetes ?

Without treatment, less than one year, possibly less than 6 months. Depends on exactly what stage the disease was in when first diagnosed. you NEED to know the "GFR Number". This number, in percent, measures show well the kidneys are working. The lower the number, the worse the disease. A GFR less than 15% requires dialysis or transplant.

With Dialysiy 5-7 years, maybe more.

With transplant -- 10 or more years, assuming a close match with the donated organ. Note, though, that the patient may be on temporary dialysis, as the waiting list for kidney transplant is about 30 months (2-1/2 years).

From the above we can see that kidney replacement therapies can maintain patients indefinitely and prolong life, the quality of life is severely affected. Renal transplantation increases the survival of patients significantly when compared to other therapeutic options; however, it is associated with an increased short-term mortality (due to complications of the surgery). Transplantation aside, high intensity home hemodialysis appears to be associated with improved survival and a greater quality of life, when compared to the conventional three times a week hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
