Anthony was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease when he was 22 years old. In addition to his diagnosis, lab tests also determined the severity of his CKD and showed that his kidneys were so deteriorated that it was a miracle he was still alive. Anthony immediately received emergency dialysis and put on the kidney transplant list. A few years later, he was able to receive a kidney after lab tests determined that he was a perfect match. Anthony shares this experience and explains how the laboratory played a critical role in his diagnosis and treatment.Visit www.ascp.org/patients to learn more about specific lab tests related to kidney diseases and to meet our other Champions.
