How to Reverse Stage 3 Kidney Failure

Kidney failure is a progressive kidney disease, and stage 3 kidney failure is the key point of kidney disease, there is a lot of hope to get reversed. Is there any treatment to reverse stage 3 kidney failure.

Caused by genetic problems; some injury or overreaction to some drugs; and diseases like glomerulonephritis, prostate disease, pin worm infestation of kidney, vasculitis, polycystic kidney disease and hemolytic-uremic syndrome, kidney disease result in progressive loss of renal function.
Symptoms include increase or decrease in the frequency of urination; urgency to urinate at night; edema of face, hands or legs; fatigue; epidermal rashes or itching due to deposition of waste material in blood; loss of appetite and a metallic taste in the mouth due to uremia; hyperphosphatemia; hypocalcemia; pain in bones and chest; and accumulation of fluid in the lungs causing shortness of breath.

Alternative therapies for kidney disease include:

Herbal remedies:

Astragalus: Consuming 250 mg to 500 mg of the standardized extract of astragalus thrice or four times a day is beneficial for kidney disease as it reduces inflammation of kidneys and works as a diuretic.

Dandelion: A decoction made using dandelion roots and leaves is good for correcting kidney disease by virtue of its diuretic properties. It helps to flush out the excess fluid from the body and prevents edema resulting from kidney disease.

Firstly, through dilating blood vessel and activating blood circulation, patients’ blood pressure can become normal gradually and renal ischemia and anoxia as well as body poisoning symptom can also be relieved. Clinical manifestations like increasing urine amount, deeper urine color and heavier urine smell can be found. Besides, patients’ urine become turbid and floccule like material can be found in urine.

Secondly, due to improved microcirculation, patients can have better appetite. Nausea and vomiting as well as other symptoms can disappear.
Thirdly, symptoms of Proteinuria and Haematuria as well as increased serum creatinine can disappear because kidney is repaired by micronized Chinese medicine and kidney function is recovered gradually.

Fourthly, as for patients who are in Renal Failure or Uremia stage, if they begin to accept Dialysis, Micro-Chinese Medicine can help them have less Dialysis or even get rid of Dialysis through repairing kidney and recovering kidney function.

How to Eliminate Proteinuria in FSGS

Proteinuria is the important sign for FSGS, prpoteinuria is the not the disease, but a symptom of many kidney disease. How to eliminate proteinuria in FSGS? This article will explain it in details.

Proteinuria, or protein in the urine, can result in bubbles in urine that gives off a foamy appearance.Infrequent bubbles in urine can occur after ingesting large amounts of protein found in protein drinks, muscle protein gaining supplements, or a large meal of fish or other protein. When a normal amount of protein is consumed in excess the healthy body is able to gets rid of the extra by eliminating it through urine. But when protein is consumed in excess amounts, the kidneys can have a more difficult time getting rid of the excess waste.
However, frequent bubbles in urine could be a more serious condition where the kidneys fail to function properly or a medical condition interferes with the body's ability to metabolize protein.

Normally, when blood passes through healthy kidneys all waste products are removed, leaving only the materials the body needs. However, in individuals with kidney disease or damaged kidneys where the glomeruli, the part of the kidney that normally filters urine, are damaged,protein from the blood can enter in to the urine. The underlying cause of bubbles in the urine related to proteinuria must be diagnosed before the symptom can be treated. If the cause is related to excess protein intake then reducing the amount of protein in the diet will reduce or eliminate bubbles in the urine.

After many years of clinical practice, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has shown its effect on treating Kidney Disease.

Firstly, through dilating blood vessel and activating blood circulation, patients’ blood pressure can become normal gradually and renal ischemia and anoxia as well as body poisoning symptom can also be relieved. Clinical manifestations like increasing urine amount, deeper urine color and heavier urine smell can be found. Besides, patients’ urine become turbid and floccule like material can be found in urine.

Secondly, due to improved microcirculation, patients can have better appetite. Nausea and vomiting as well as other symptoms can disappear.
Thirdly, symptoms of Proteinuria and Haematuria as well as increased serum creatinine can disappear because kidney is repaired by micronized Chinese medicine and kidney function is recovered gradually.

Fourthly, as for patients who are in Renal Failure or Uremia stage, if they begin to accept Dialysis, Micro-Chinese Medicine can help them have less dialysis or even get rid of Dialysis through repairing kidney and recovering kidney function.

How to Alleviate Bone pain in Kidney Failure

Several patients with kidney failure will suffer from bone disease, is there any treatment to alleviate bone pain. This article will explain it in details.

Kidney failure weakens the bones due to a condition called chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder. As discussed in the previous section, kidney failure can throw off the balance of calcium and phosphorus in the blood, causing the parathyroid glands to produce too much parathyroid hormone. The high level of parathyroid hormone draws calcium from the bones into the blood, leaving the bones without enough calcium. Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder describes the imbalance of calcium and phosphorus and how this imbalance weakens the bones. The condition affects 90 percent of dialysis patients, both children and adults, causing bones to become thin, weak, or malformed. Symptoms can be seen in growing children with kidney disease even before they start dialysis. Older patients and women who have gone through menopause are at greater risk for this disorder. Controlling parathyroid hormone levels prevents damage to bones. Usually, overactive parathyroid glands are controllable with an adjustment in dialysis treatment, medications, or changes in diet. In some cases, removal of most of the parathyroid glands may be useful. Reducing dietary intake of phosphorus can also help prevent bone disease.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is a kind of treatment that can repair injured renal inherent cells through the method of combining oral Chinese Medicine an external applied Chinese Medicine. In addition, it is treatment combined both Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine.

Micro-Chinese Medicine means processing Traditional Chinese Medicine into more refined and micronized medicine powder which is much easier to be absorbed by body.

Osmotherapy refers to the special external application method of making medicine permeate into body, which can make medicine arrive at kidney lesion directly.

The Health Diet for Patients with FSGS

Dietary treatment is an important aspect of care for all patients with FSGS. It is necessary to meet with your dietician to discuss individual needs for your renal diet.

The following information will give you an overview of a renal diet, prior to dialysis, and also what to expect when you commence dialysis. You will be informed by the dietician when it is necessary to commence this diet. All patients have different dietary needs, so it is important to start this diet only under the guidance of the dietician.

Salt

Salt is an important aspect of dietary treatment at all stages of your kidney disease. High intake of salt, from the diet, can cause problems with blood pressure control and fluid retention. It is advised to avoid adding any salt to meals and also to reduce the intake of very salty foods such as processed meats, bacon, sausages, soup and packet sauces. Your dietician will advise you on suitable alternatives to using salt.

Protein

Protein intake from the diet is important during the progression of chronic kidney disease and also when you commence dialysis. The protein we eat is used for tissue repair and growth. Any unused protein is broken down into waste products, including urea and creatinine. As your kidneys are unable to excrete urea and creatinine properly, they build up in your blood and cause symptoms such as nausea and loss of appetite.
By eating large amounts of protein foods e.g. meat, fish, chicken, eggs, cheese, milk and yoghurt before commencing dialysis, you will affect the buildup of urea and creatinine in your blood. An appropriate daily intake of protein should be advised by your dietician.
However, once dialysis treatment has commenced it is important to make sure that your body is getting
enough protein to prevent malnutrition. Some of your stores of protein are lost during the haemodialysis
and CAPD sessions. How much protein you need depends on your body size and is specific to each individual.

Phosphate

Phosphate is another mineral found in many foods, mainly meat and dairy products such as milk, cheese, yoghurts, and also bran nuts and cola. Calcium and phosphate work together to keep your bones, teeth and blood vessels healthy. When phosphate and calcium levels are elevated, or out of balance in kidney disease, the extra calcium and phosphate join together to form hard deposits in your body. This is known as calcification. These deposits can form in the heart, lungs, blood vessels, joints and other soft tissue. High phosphate levels also affect your bones, causing kidney bone disease. Over time bones become brittle, weak and painful and liable to fracture easily.
As with potassium, an elevated phosphate level will require you to reduce the intake of phosphate from your diet. It may also be necessary to take phosphate binding substances with your food to reduce the absorption of phosphate from the gut.
Potassium is a mineral found in many foods, mainly fruits, vegetables and potatoes. It is necessary for muscle contractions but a very high level in the blood can be dangerous as it may cause irregular heart rythym. If your potassium levels increase, above normal, you will need to avoid certain foods that are high in potassium as advised by your dietician. High sources of potassium in the diet include bananas, dried fruit, peas, beans, spinach and potato products such as chips and crisps. The dialysis diet provides enough potassium to meet the needs of your body, while preventing accumulation between dialysis sessions.

Fluids

If you are treated with haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis you may need to limit your fluid intake. The amount of fluid you will be allowed depends on the amount of urine you produce. You can reduce your fluid intake by using small cups/glasses, and spacing out your drinks throughout the day. You can also help prevent thirst by limiting the amount of salt and salty foods that you eat.
Each person, with kidney disease, is very different and so are their needs and requirements. The dietary advice you are given depends on a number of factors including the stage of kidney disease, the type of treatment you are on, your blood results, your body weight, and the presence of other medical conditions e.g. diabetes mellitus, high cholesterol levels. The dietician will, therefore, provide you with information that is designed for you as an individual to suit your own specific needs.

Can FSGS be Cured by Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy

FSGS is a kind of disease related with immune system. With the progress of kidney disease. Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital have made great achievement in treating this disease with Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. This therapy allows patients to live longer and have high quality of lives.

In general, the course of FSGS kidney disease is immunological. That is, the antibodies and white blood cells we have to fight off infection cause some damage to our own bodies by mistake. The disease attacks the kidney′s filtering system (glomeruli) causing serious scarring. It is one of the causes of a serious condition called Nephrotic Syndrome. Till date, medicine therapy can only ameliorate symptoms, and it is unable to reverse the course of the disease.
Recent research though has changed the prognosis. Today there is hope. Sooner than we have ever imagined there may be a simple way to change the course of this disease-and perhaps even cure it.

What is Mcro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for Kidney Disease refer to a group of immature cells that have the potential to differentiate into any type of mature cell in the body. Their sources in our hospital are: 1) mesenchymal Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for Kidney Disease from other tissues; 2) immature Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for Kidney Disease from human (umbilical) .
Replacement of the diseased and necrotic renal cells, in case of FSGS kidney disease, by Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for Kidney Disease action is the basis of treatment. The concept is to take Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for Kidney Disease and cultivate them in proper condition, which can then be transplanted into the body of the patient.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for Kidney Disease is carried out through intravenous injection, and its features include regenerating healthy cells to perform the roles of damage renal intrinsic cells, accelerating the repairing process of damage cells by providing nutrition, largely improving the kidney function, and regulating the overall immune system. So your disease can be treated from the root, and it will never recur again.

How to Alleviate Anemia in PKD

With the progress of the kidney disease, many symptoms occur, such as low back pain, abdomen pain, while, can PKD causes anemia? And more importantly, how to deal with anemia in PKD?


Persons with PKD have multiple clusters of cysts form on the kidneys. The exact action that triggers cyst formation is unknown. In early stages of the disease, the cysts cause the kidney to swell, disrupting kidney function and leading to chronic high blood pressure and kidney infections. The cysts may cause the kidneys to increase production of erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates production of red blood cells. This leads to too many red blood cells, rather than the anemia seen in chronic kidney disease.

Normally, Anemia does not happen until Polycystic Kidney Disease develops into End Stage Renal Failure, but patients who suffer from continuous Haematuria may have light Anemia. Compared with other Renal Failure patients whose diseases are caused by other Kidney Diseases, Polycystic Kidney Disease patients usually get Anemia later than those patients with lighter degree. There are still some patients who get Anemia in Polycystic Kidney Disease before End Stage Renal Failure, but Anemia is always caused by other factors.

blood dialysis and peritoneal dialysis can eliminate the metabolism waste in human body, regulate the balance of water and electrolyte and extend the lifetime of erythropoiesis. However, the effects of dialysis for renal anemia are limited.These methods adopted by Western medicine are just aiming at the symptoms of renal anemia caused by PKD, so they just can relieve the patients' condition temporarily and they can not treat PKD fundamentally. Differing from western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine proceed from the cysts of PKD patients. At present, on the basis of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital combines them with the most advanced technology in the world, forming a brand new therapy-Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. By promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, softening cysts wall and increasing the supply of blood, this therapy can improve the adsorption of cysts wall and further decrease the damage to normal renal function and promote the recover of renal function. By this way, it can treat renal anemia and PKD fundamentally.

The natural treatments for reliving anemia in PKD should focus on stopping the growth of kidney cysts by preventing the active substances in the epithelial cells from releasing, it also can promote the excretion of cysts fluid by increasing the blood circulation of the surface of the kidney cysts.

What Causes Fatigue in Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis

With the kidney function decline, FSGS patients would suffer more and more symptoms, fatigue is one of these sysmptoms. Due to fatigue, patients can not and have not spirits to do the normal activities, influencing the work and life of patients a lot. Then what causes fatigue in FSGS?

Because the kidneys are responsible for removing waste products from the bloodstream, a decline in kidney function will result in feelings of sluggishness and constant unexplained fatigue. Some patients also feel weakness throughout their body and have trouble sleeping or concentrating.

Anemia is the most common cause of fatigue in FSGS kidney disease. When the kidneys are impaired, waste products or uremic toxins will build up in the blood stream. Moreover, healthy kidneys can also secrete several important hormones, one of which is called erythropoietin (EPO). This hormone can help the bone marrow make new red blood cells. As kidney function declines, they kidneys are not able to release sufficient EPO, leading to fewer red blood cells count, or anemia. Red blood cells contain a protein known as haemoglobin, which can transport oxygen to all the parts of the body. Without enough supply of oxygen, the cells in the body have to work harder, patients with FSGS will feel tired all of time.

Another common cause of fatigue in FSGS may be lack of hydration. The energy levels are directly associated with the kidneys′ ability to process liquids and foods in the body. When the body runs low on water, it may also run low on energy.

The above is a general introduction of the reasons of fatigue in FSGS. Patients are suggested to talk with the doctor and find the specific causes so that we can take corresponding treatment to eliminate the underlying cause.


Now if you still have some questions about the causes of fatigue in FSGS or ask for treatment suggestions, you can contact our online doctors, leave us messages or send email to kidneyhospitalabroad@hotmail.com, we will reply you within 24 hours.

People with high creatinine level should strictly limit the intake of meat, take low-salt and low-protein and low-fat diet, get rid of food containing high protein, eat less soy products. What more important is that we should pay high attention to it rather than despise it. Reducing the values of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen effectively can avoid the the disease deteriorating to uremia.

Simply lowering creatinine values can not solve problem thoroughly, and it may even easily lead to recurrent, so patients with high creatinine best receive regular treatment.

What high creatinine level patients need to do is to control the intake of meat food and take proper exercise. For patients with creatinine values around 700, the key point of treatment is to combine traditional Chinese and western medicine, eliminate the immune complex and diseased tissue of glomerular basement membrane, repair the damaged renal intrinsic cells, and only by this means can help patients restore the function of kidney filtration.
