person-avatar

Asking for Father, Male, 65 years old, Islamabad

My father have been taking pain killers for about 8-9 years as he had hip replacement surgury. In past one year he left his private work which started after retirement and started staying at home. He usually have high BP and also taking medicine. He had Fit attack in last December due to some family issues. Few days back his leg swelled and we did all his basic test and found his HB was 6 and Kidney Creatinine value 5.8. Doctor admitted him and anjected iron injections now HB is 8. But we are worried about kidney. Doctor has given medicines and will check again on 26th. Please tell me whether this Creatinine range (5.8) can be controlled by food and medicines ??? I am very much worried if Allah forbids if it goes to Dialysis. I can share reports through email if needed. Please guide.

In many cases creatinine can become normal and kidney gets better but this all depends on the cause of kidney injury.If this is an acute kidney injury, it will get better.Chronic kidney disease most of the time, especially at this stage, will not improve.But best thing to do is to stop pain killers which effects kidney functions and seek a personal consultation with well qualified nephrologist.You may visit my website at www.bestnephrologist.com and make appointment by calling 0315-238-1111

Lowering of s/creatinine is a routine phenomenon with proper medicine. Today bicarbonate therapy and other supplemental approaches result in encouraging results.
But it's important kidneys do have some reserve left so that they can improved so kidney size urine finding change the paradigm of treatment.

Dear Sister Mehak,
We have family history of PKD kidney disease and have been dealing with kidney disease for last 25 years. Would recommend every one with kidney disease to consult a GOOD Homeo doctor. All top consultants/professors in Lahore and UK recommended me for haemodialysis 10 years ago, have been fighting against kidney disease for last 25 years. On homeo medicines for 15 years despite numerous recommendations (well after looking at my reports all prof/consultants ask me for immediate dialysis) from all top consultants for dialysis for over a decade I have avoided it using homeo medicine. I am consulting Homeo Dr Waqar Anjum Chohan safa wala chowk Lahore he is the best, not advertising on his behalf just telling all sufferers, should choose a good Homeo doc as kidney disease is critical and not all homeo docs are experts in dealing with it. I would say just try Dr waqar for 1 month and see the difference.
Allah bless you
