I am not a doctor but I do have my mother who has PKD. Both her kidneys failed when she was 48 years old. She is now almost 71 years old and goes for dialysis treatments 3 times a week. I know this does not answer the question, for I believe each individual is different with different cases, I am just going by my mom. My brother and I also have the disease and we are good. If kidneys fail there are alternatives these days, whether dialysis, or kidney transplant. You can live as long as you stay healthy and go for checkups and stuff.

Diabetic kidney disease is when the kidneys essentially begin to go into organ failure. Diabetic kidney disease is aggressive and once the patient is to the point of seeking dialysis, the person infected with the disease is projected to live 5-6 years with diabetic kidney disease.
