I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY MOTHERS HEALTH AS SHE HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE WITH GLOMERULAR FILTERATION RATE AS 21 AND SERUM CRETININE IS 3.2 .ONE MONTH BACK THE SERUM CRETININE WAS 2.4 AND A WEEK BEFORE IT WAS 2.9 AND NOW IT IS 3.2.SHE HAS HIGH B.P 130/90 AND SHE WAS ADMITTED IN HOSPITAL BECAUSE SHE FAINTED.SHE USED TO HAVE MUSCLE CRAMPS AS WELL.WHAT WOULD YOU SUGGEST TO LOWER DOWN HER SERUM CRETININE AND WHETHER THIS IS THE STAGE FOR DIALYSIS
I HAVE SEEN MANY PATIENTS OF CKD.. THOUGH THE TREATMENT OF CKD BY MEDICATIONS ALONE IS DIFFICULT BUT MEDICATIONS HELP TO MAINTAIN A CONSTANT LEVEL OF SERUM CREATININE..
IT IS ASSESED BY YOUR NEPHROLOGIST DEPENDING ON CLINICAL SITUATION AND NOT ON CREAT LEVELS
USUALLY IT'S DONE WHEN YOUR NEPHROLOGIST SUSPECT METABOLIC ACIDOSIS, IF OEDEMA IS NOT GETTING TREATED WITH MEDICATION, IF THERE IS INCREASE IN CREAT NOT CONYROLLED BY MEDICATION
I SUGGEST THAT YOUR MOTHER AVOIDS EATING FRUITS
AND ALSO TALK TO YOUR NEPHROLOGIST HE CAN HELP YOU
HOPE I ANSWERED SOME OF YOUR QUERIES.. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY OTHER CONCERN
