Questions & Answers on "Nephrologist" (134)

I am a 64 year old female who was diagnosed with IGA nephropathy in 1992. I am now Stage 4. My creatinine hovers around 2.38 and my GFR is 23. I do not have protein spillage or blood in my urine. I have lost 124 lbs over the last 12 months with the assistance of Zepbound? Please help me understand what is causing my Creatinine to continue to rise? Could the Zepbound be causing this? I eat 1200 calories a day and stay within my sodium and potassium goals. I run 3 miles a day. But my kidneys are continuing to worsen. Please help me understand what else I can do. What is causing my creatinine to continue to rise? Should I get another kidney biopsy since my last biopsy was 32 years ago? Thank you so much for your help.

Female | 64

Considering your circumstance with IGA nephropathy, it is usual that creatinine levels may increase as kidney functions get worse. Also, rapid weight loss may affect kidney function. It is good that you are committed to eating right and exercising, but running 3 miles every day could strain your kidneys more. You should talk about these worries with a nephrologist. A further kidney biopsy might be able to tell what is happening to your kidneys now.

Kidney and creatine level problem?

Male | 53

Kidneys filter waste from blood. If creatinine levels rise, kidneys struggle. Tiredness, swelling, and nausea occur. Causes include hypertension, diabetes, certain medications. Doctors prescribe medicine, diet changes, sometimes dialysis. Following medical advice preserves kidney function.

I'm 22 year old female... I have 5.6mm kidney stone.. how can this remove without surgery

Female | 22

Managing a 5.6mm kidney stone without surgery is possible in some cases. Symptoms may include pain in the back or side, difficulty urinating, or blood in urine. To help pass the stone, increase fluid intake, particularly water, and consider dietary adjustments, like limiting salt and animal protein. Over-the-counter pain relievers can provide relief. Sometimes, medications called alpha blockers may aid stone passage. However, it’s vital to connect with a nephrologist for tailored advice and to monitor your situation.

Can I take creatine if I have kidney stone?

Male | 23

Having a kidney stone might mean creatine isn't safe. Kidney stones can cause your back or side - and sometimes your belly - to hurt. They're normally a group of minerals or salts stuck together in the kidneys. By taking creatine, you could potentially make kidney stones more painful because it adds stress to your kidneys. Get advice from a nephrologist before starting creatine if you have kidney stones.

Hi, I have end-stage kidney failure and I've been doing hemodialysis for 4 years now, and I've been worrying about my fistula or how long it is going to last before I get a tube stuck in my neck as an alternative. Today, the bulge on my arm which I assume is the fistula got moved or at least something got moved slightly causing discomfort and a change of shape of the bulge. Is that a cause for concern? It doesn't have redness or pain in the exact place, but I'm worried sick. Can this be fixed by a surgery? Other questions that have been bothering me. How about if it got ruptured? It started to bulge and reddened. Can it still be fixed? Also, let's say my left arm fistula died and I had to use my right arm. Can I still use my left arm for fistula once it's healed in the future? Thank you for your answers in advance, I'm a teenager who got dealt with a bad hand right from the get-go and I wish to know more about my current situation.

It’s understandable to be concerned about changes in your fistula. If you notice any discomfort, change in shape, or other symptoms like redness, it's important to check it. A vascular surgeon can assess your fistula and determine if any intervention is needed. Even if your current fistula fails, it's possible to create a new one in the same arm after healing. This should be evaluated by your doctor. Please consult your nephrologist or a vascular surgeon for a detailed examination and advice.
