Questions & Answers on "Nephrologist" (134)

Dr, I was diagnosed with IGA nephropathy 32 years ago. I am 64 years of age and my creatinine is 2.31 and has been hovering around that number. I have lost 124 lbs over the past year with the assistance of Zepbound. My kidneys have not improved and appear to be getting slightly worse. I run 3 miles a day and eat around 1200 calories a day never exceeding my sodium or potassium requirements. I do not have protein or blood in my urine. Please help. What is causing my creatinine to continue to rise? I am currently In Stage 4 kidney disease. Should I get an updated biopsy since my only biopsy was done in 1992. What can I do? Could the Zepbound be causing my kidneys to worsen? I drink 100 ounces of water daily.

It is concerning that your creatinine levels are rising despite your efforts. IGA nephropathy can progress slowly over time, and factors like age, diet, and medications may influence kidney function. Zepbound's impact on your kidneys should be evaluated by a specialist. I strongly advise you to consult a nephrologist for a thorough assessment and consider getting an updated biopsy to understand the current state of your kidney disease.

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.

How many points can my creatinine increase with GFR increase after 30 days with stage 4 ckd eating low phosphorus potassium protein and sodium. I have lost some weight using peddler. In the past 30 days my blood pressure and blood sugar have been stable

Male | 76

This means less creatinine in your system. Lower creatinine is good - it shows less strain. High creatinine brings tiredness, swelling, trouble urinating. Keep tracking your progress carefully. If new worries arise, like changes in how you feel, let your nephrologist know right away.

i have done ultrasound result was 14mm stone in pelvic uretic junction when litho done after treatment another ultrasound done showing another stone 9mm in kidny how it is possible invisible the seond stone in first ultrasound?

Female | 34

Often the second kidney stone might be missed on the first ultrasound. Stones can form in different parts of the kidney and may not all appear at the same time. Symptoms of kidney stones include pain in the back or side, blood in the urine, and discomfort while urinating. Treatment options include drinking a lot of water, medications, or procedures to break the stone. It's crucial to have your nephrologist check you for any additional problems and manage your treatment accordingly.

Male | 29

Hello, managing diabetes carefully is crucial for slowing kidney damage. Keep your blood sugar and blood pressure under control, follow a kidney-friendly diet, and avoid nephrotoxic medications. It is important to consult a nephrologist for personalized treatment and advice. Regular check-ups with your doctor will help monitor your condition and adjust your treatment as needed.
