Questions & Answers on "Nephrology" (134)

Hello Doctor, My grandmother age is 72. She has Diabetes, BP, urinary tract infection. Recently, a mild cyst found in her kidney through CT Scan. 15 days ago, her condition went serious and we joined her In hospital. Her sugar levels were 600mg/dl. Doctors treated her and dropped her sugar levels to normal. Now, she is mentally not stable and taking full bed rest. She is unable to stand or sit on her own. She is able to recognise all of us and can eat or drink on her own. But she is very week and mentally disturbed so much. She talks unrelated. Please suggest what treatment we should take for her. Thank you doctor.

Female | 72

Your grandmother faced challe­nging times. Her health conditions re­cently caused worries. Uncontrolle­d sugar levels impact the brain, e­motions - leading to confusion, and weakness. A kidne­y cyst may add stress too. Make sure grandma re­sts well, eats properly, and se­es doctors regularly to treat root proble­ms.

I am 36 years old, a few days ago I had severe pain in my back and stomach, I got sonography done and kidney stones were detected. Now whenever I take a long breath, it hurts, I feel mild pain all day long, there is slight bleeding in the phlegm also

Female | 36

The back and abdominal discomfort you’re experiencing could be associated with kidney stones, which may also lead to irritation. The pain while breathing, along with blood in your phlegm, suggests a need for further evaluation. These signs, while often manageable, should not be overlooked. I recommend scheduling an appointment with your healthcare provider for a thorough examination and appropriate treatment. Staying hydrated and avoiding strenuous activity can be beneficial in the meantime.

I've test kidney function test all the parameters are in normal range except uric acid that is 7.9 mg/dl, and I want to take creatine supplement should i take it. (And before KFT test I had have ate fish and high purine food).

Male | 20

Your UA climb was up to 7.9mg/dl and you are considering using creatine. With higher UA comes greater chances for gout, a condition marked by pain and swelling in the joints. You should not take any creatine supplement right now while still eating fish and other high-purine foods since this would elevate your UA even further. To help decrease its level, stick with those things lower in purines.

Hello (apologies for long post) Caucasian, Male, 60, 6'0", 260 lbs. Meds: Lisinopril 40 mg, Metoprolol 50 mg x2 a day, Amlodipine 10 mg, Furosemide 20 mg, Glimepiride 1 mg, Janumet 50-1000 x 2, Atorvastatin 10 mg...NO drink/smoke or rec. drugs. Issue: After a lot of work, have lost 40+ lbs in last 5-6 years...blood pressure 130/85, A1c 7.0 ...here is the issue. In March of 2023, after years of my GFR staying constant in mid/upper 40's, (not great, but consistent), it was lower at 41. Dr wanted to check it again in 1 month. I very strictly controlled my diet/sugar/protein/soda/increase water intake, etc...take meds religiously...GFR dropped to 35. Dr sent me to a nephrologist, but before the scheduled appointment (which was 6 weeks later), he took me off of Triamterene...said it can be hard on kidneys. When the nephrologist sent me for labs, GFR went UP to 50. Another test 2 weeks later and GFR went up to 55. Nephrologist says that removing Triamterene from regimen played NO part in GFR rising...put me on Spironolactone due to edema returning . 6 months later at next check-up, all numbers and BP continue to be good, but GFR back down to 40. Is it possible that the diuretics have been hard on my kidneys and causing the lower GFR. I understand with years of HBP/diabetes, the GFR is not ideal, but I'd like to keep it in the 50's if possible. Family doctor took me off the Spironolactone and put me on Lasix in March of 2024...bloodwork coming up in a couple of weeks. Family doctor seems to think the diuretics have contributed to lower GFR...Nephrologist says they have nothing to do with my fluctuating GFR numbers... seeking input from anyone here with knowledge/experience...appreciate any insights re: affect of diuretics on GFR...alternatives to traditional diuretics, etc. I've read loop diuretics like Lasix best for kidney issues.

Is nic showing on a bloodtest

Female | 17

When getting a blood test, it may show if someone has too much 'NIC' in their system. This happens when people eat too many things with salt or if their kidneys are not working well. If you feel thirsty and tired all the time, or if your feet and legs swell up - those could be signs that something is wrong because of too much 'NIC'.

Male | 65

Herbal Home Treatment for Kidney Stones and Fatty Liver One of the most surprising health benefits attributed to turmeric is the treatment of kidney stones and fatty liver. Turmeric has a compound curcumin which may assist in the disbanding of kidney stones and also reduce inflammation in the liver. However, always, it is your doctor who decides whether you can start a new treatment or not. Also, don't forget to drink more water so the stones will be easily removed.

My friends brother has effected with stroke while getting into dialysis with oxygen mask. Kindly guide what to do

Male | 60

A stroke during dialysis can be caused by low blood pressure or the brain not receiving enough oxygen. Symptoms can include, but are not limited to, sudden weakness on one side of the body, slurred speech, and confusion. Place the person on the ground, loosen anything too tight, and call for help.

I am 17 year old male my urine color is yellow can you tell me why since I was a child

Male | 17

Urine­ normally appears yellow due to urochrome­ pigment. Darker yellow ofte­n results from dehydration or certain foods consume­d. Drinking more water typically lightens the­ color. Pain or burning during urination merits discussing with a urologist. Urochrome­ presence alone­ is usually innocuous and not a major concern. But combined with other symptoms, it may signal an unde­rlying issue requiring medical e­valuation. Overall, yellowish urine alone­ is generally harmless, as long as no othe­r troubling signs accompany it.
