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 5.5mm kidney stone lower pole left kidney asymptomatic... What to do

Male | 29

A small stone in your left kidney, which isn't causing any symptoms, seems manageable. These tiny stones form when minerals stick together. Often, they'll pass on their own without causing any trouble. Keep drinking water regularly, cut back on salty snacks, and consult your nephrologist for advice.

CHENNAI ANNA NAGAR HOME DIALYSIS REQUIRED

Male | 65

Home dialysis is an effective treatment for kidney issues, allowing for better management of symptoms such as fatigue, swelling, and changes in urination. This method involves using specialized equipment to filter waste from the blood at home, providing flexibility and comfort. Potential causes of kidney complications include diabetes, hypertension, and genetic factors. It's vital to consult with a nephrologist to assess your condition and determine the best approach for your needs. They can guide you through the process, ensuring a personalized plan that promotes your well-being.

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.

Male | 60

Diuretics such as Triamterene may have been responsible for your kidney problems, which in turn may have resulted in the increase or decrease of your GFR. The switch from you to Lasix by your family doctor is a good decision as it is a diuretic that may be less harsh on the kidneys. Continue to collaborate with a nephrologist to discover the optimal treatment for you.

My wife is 39 years old suffering from CKD.Her cretanine pevel is 6.4

Female | 39

Your wife is likely to be getting symptoms such as fatigue, swelling, and trouble breathing if the creatinine level is 6.4. This could be from Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), which is when the kidneys get damaged. To help manage this, she needs to follow a low-salt diet, take the prescribed medications, and possibly undergo dialysis. It's vital to ensure that her condition is stable by doing regular check-ups.
