Kidney Disease Stage III, What Can Be Done To Restore Health
Kidney disease stage III is a special period for patients, as what they done at that moment decides their following life. Kidney is made of tens and thousands of nephrons, and when only a small group of renal tissues are damaged, there is no serious influence on kidney function. Therefore, kidney has strong compensatory function.
In kidney disease stage III, various symptoms begin to appear and with the progression of disease, symptoms become more serious and meanwhile, different kinds of complication like heart failure and cardiovascular diseases occur one by one. These fatal threats patients' life seriously and at last they are always the direct cause of patient's death. Besides, when kidney disease runs to stage V from stage III, patients will go into dialysis or kidney transplant directly. Although these two conventional treatments are helpful in furthering patient's life, they are risky at the same time, and they may lose their life at any time with dialysis and kidney transplant. But fortunately, if patients can stop kidney disease stage III timely and effectively, these bad consequences will be avoided.
To live a high quality life with kidney problem, the most urgent thing for patients is to stop kidney disease from developing to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Immunosuppressive medicines are the common measures to stop kidney problem. They are helpful, but not fundamental, which means they do not treat kidney disease fundamentally and once patients stop taking medicines or reducing dose of medicine, kidney disease relapse. And every relapse of kidney problem will push patients in a more serious illness condition.
Immunotherapy is a new treatment and its advantage for kidney disease is it focuses on repairing kidney damages. We know more and more renal tissues are damaged is the real cause for decreased kidney function. So once kidney damages are repaired, kidney function is recovered and kidney disease stage III stop progressing to kidney failure.
Besides effective treatment, living a healthy life style is also very important for patients with kidney disease stage III. Try to follow dietary principles posed by doctor and avoid various risky factors like infection and cold. For kidney disease patients, only attach enough more importance on their disease, can they be more likely to live a better life in future.
