Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Were creations of God. If you observe the nephrologists instructions, you can delay the progression to further deterioration. If you're on thrice weekly dialysis, it may even be decreased to twice-weekly. As a Urologist, I can only say for sure, there's no fixed time period to end stage kidney failure. Pacemakers are not related to kidney failure in any way.
