How to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease without dialysis

Dialysis is mistaken as the only option by many PKD patients. Actually, it is not true, because we can avoid kidney failure effectively with Polycystic Kidney Disease if there is timely diagnosis and effective medical treatment. Well then, how to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease without dialysis?
When it comes to the treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease, most of the patients will think about oral medications for high blood pressure, pain-killer for back pain and other tablets for proteinuria and high creatinine level.As a matter of fact, these medications all are used to control symptoms or normalize clinical indexes. None of them is applied to deal with cysts in kidney. Polycystic Kidney Disease is a genetic kidney problem and it affects our kidney function. Therefore, when it develops to a certain stage, various symptoms like high blood pressure, blood urine and back pain will occur. Occurrence of these clinical manifestations indicates kidneys have been damaged and fail to maintain us a normal life. The root cause of these symptoms is decreased kidney function caused by enlarged cysts. Therefore, shrinking kidney cyst to improve kidney function is very necessary.
Dialysis is helpful for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients with completely damaged kidneys，but for these who has a certain kidney function, they can choose Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is an alternative treatment which treats Polycystic Kidney Disease by shrinking cysts in kidney. Effective ingredients in micro-Chinese medicines have function to lower blood pressure outside the cyst, when there is pressure differences, fluid inside the cyst ooze out and consequently, kidney cysts become smaller.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy differs from surgery. It is painless and causes no side effects.What is more, it can solve problem from the root, so for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients who have no started dialysis, they can try about Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy.

Something You Need to know about kidney failure

Chronic kidney function failure is the final result of various kidney disease. Even though chronic kidney is caused by different reasons, when the disease develop to a stage, that will exist some common mechanism. Various pathogeny lead to chronic kidney disease, and then cause kidney injured, losing kidney unit function, and reduce the number of the kidney unit. In order to make up them, and maintain the normal physiological function, the kidney unit will arise compensatory adaption, and aggravate its workload. Long-playing high load compensatory will make more and more kidney unit suffer damage gradually , GFR will decline gradually, and come to the final stage inevitably, then turn into renal uremia stage. So chronic kidney function failure should be found earlier. It is very important to inspect hazards earlier and interfere with the kidney function failure , reduce and delay it.
Among the different stage of chronic kidney failure, the clinical manifestation is also different. In the chronic kidney failure compensatory and early decompensation , patient may have no symptom, or only lack of power, soreness of waist, nocturia get more and some other mild comfortable. A few of patients decrease their appetite, etaboliaed acidosis or mild anemia. If patients realized earlier and treat the disease earlier, it will be better. But the as usual, patients often don’t attach great importance to that as the clinical feature is so light, and lead to the chronic kidney disease treat belated.

What are the symptoms of ADPKD

ADPKD is one of diseases that involves the whole body system. The followings are the general introduction about symptom of ADPKD.
1.Kidney Cyst: lots of ADPKD patients’ symptom is closely related to the cyst of kidney. Kidney cortex, medulla exist multiple fluid cyst, diameter differs from millimeter to centimeter, the size of the cyst and the number of the cyst are gradually increase along with the course of disease. Male patients with ADPKD have higher risk of developing big cysts compared with female patients.
2 Back pain: the common symptom for the patients is back pain or rib and abdomen pain. With the increase of age, back pain symptoms becomes obvious, and this symptom is more common among female patients. Acute Pain and sudden worsening of pain always indicate cyst rupture hemorrhage urinary obstruction resulted from stone or blood clot and concurrent infection. Increscent kidney or cyst pull capsule renal pedicle, oppress organ nearby and therefore lead to Chronic pain.
3.Blood urine : more than 90% of the patients have bleeding condition or macroscopic haematuria which are usually Idiopathic. It also can occur after dramatic movement or trauma. The causes of hematuria are cyst vascular rupture, stone infection or cancer and so on. Generally speaking, hematuria are self-limited,and usually disappear within 2 to 7 days. If bleed last more than one week or the patients with age over 50, doctors need to make sure the cysts are not cancerous.
4. High blood pressure: high blood pressure is one of the common symptoms of ADPKD in early stage. 50% of the young ADPKD patients with normal renal function have high blood pressure more than 140/90mmHg. Almost all the patients with advanced stage ADPKD have high blood pressure. The severity of the blood pressure is in proportion to the number of the cysts, the size of the cyst, as well as patients’ age.
5,kidney function damage, early kidney function damage often show as kidney function decline. Most of the patients can maintain normal kidney function in early stage. However, once kidney function decreases , GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate) decreases at speed of 4.4~5.5ml/min every year, from impaired kidney function develops to end-stage renal disease within 10 years.
6. Others: 20% of the ADPKD patients have kidney stones which is mainly uric acid and (or) oxalic acid calcium stone. Urinary tract and cyst infection are the common complications, retrograde infection is the major route. Compared with the ordinary person, ADPKD patients with renal cancer cells often get invasion in the early days and their symptom is more obvious. Also, they are at high risk of developing bilateral sarcoma sample multicenter metastases

Diet Information for Chronic Kidney Disease

Scientific diet is one of the necessary ways to treat chronic kidney disease, because scientific diet can relieve symptoms, reduce damage and improve the live level of the patients.
1. Low-protein diet in CKD
Reduce the content of the protein can improve the azotemia,relieve damages to kidney caused by proteinuria. It is also beneficial to deduce phosphorus in blood and relieve acidosis, because with the ingestion of the protein, some phosphorus and other inorganic acid ion can also come in. Generally speaking,0.6kg protein intake can satisfy people’s physiological need, so chronic kidney patients need to supply 30-60g protein. How to select protein food? patients need to give first place to fish, lean meat, chicken and milk, as far as possible to reduce food containing vegetable protein, for example peanut soybean and bean products, because vegetable protein has much non-essential amino acid. It is bad to ingest too much protein, as high protein intake can worsen proteinuria symptom.
 2.Caloric intake in Chronic Kidney Disease
Ingesting enough carbohydrate helps to offer enough heat which can help to reduce protein consumption and thus improve azotemia. It also can take full advantage of amino acid with the low protein dietary. 125.6J/kg of heat need to be offered to our body through staple food everyday. The main supplying food is rice wheat and corn that contain enough carbohydrate. In addition, sweet potato, potato, apple, lotus root also have abundant carbohydrate, we can serve as replenish food, satisfy our hunger between the meal.
3. High vitamin diet for CKD patients
chronic kidney patients often has vitamin deficiency, on one hand that is related to dietary restriction, on the other hand, it is related to disease supersession. So patients need to gain enough vitamin, especially vitamin B, vitamin C, folic acid and so on. Fruit and vegetable have abundant vitamin and common fruits and vegetables include tomato, rape, chives, oranges, hawthorn and so on, patients need to eat fresh vegetables and fruits in daily life.
The above is the introduction about diet for Chronic Kidney Disease. If you are not clearly about it, please feel free to consult us and we will try our best to help you.

Symptoms and Prognosis of Polycystic Kidney Disease

Polycystic Kidney Disease is a typical chronic genetic kidney problem. With different illness conditions, diet, nursing care,treatment method and living style, Polycystic Kidney Disease patients usually have different symptoms and prognosis. Now, let's have a look about symptoms and prognosis of Polycystic Kidney Disease in different stages.
Symptoms and prognosis of Polycystic Kidney Disease in early stage
PKD patients may suffer no symptoms in early stage. PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) affects kidney function with the enlargement of kidney cysts. In early stage, kidney cysts are usually very small and cause no kidney damages. In this case, patients always feel nothing different and uncomfortable. For people with PKD in early stage, if they can avoid kidney damages with medical treatment, their prognosis will be very good as they can live a normal life with normal kidney function.
Symptoms and prognosis of Polycystic Kidney Disease in developing stage
In cases of PKD, more and more cysts appear over time. These cysts enlarge and oppress surrounding kidney tissues, which make these kidney tissues unable in displaying function. Under such a condition, various symptoms like high blood pressure, back pain, blood urine, enlarged kidney, repeated infection and proteinuria will appear. At that time,although kidney function has been impaired, if PKD patients stop the progression of PKD, their prognosis can be improved greatly.
Symptoms and prognosis of Polycystic Kidney Disease in advanced stage
When PKD develops to advanced stage, patients will be at high risk to develop complications like kidney stone, polycystic liver and brain aneurysm. In this stage, effective treatment will help to lower your risk of developing these terrible complications.
Symptoms and prognosis of Polycystic Kidney Disease in kidney failure stage
One end stage kidney failure is diagnosed, patients will be asked to start dialysis or kidney transplant, both of which can help to clear toxins from the blood. Dialysis and kidney transplant are the two most traditional medical methods for kidney failure patients to improve their life expectancy and prolong their life span,but here I want to say, although dialysis and kidney transplant are helpful to some extent, they are not the only two options for PKD patients, as an alternative treatment has been created to help PKD patients recently.

Foods to Avoid with Polycystic Kidney Disease

The right diet can slow down the progression of Polycystic Kidney Disease.PKD is a chronic kidney disorder with different sizes of cysts in the kidney. PKD affect kidney function by damaging kidney tissues, which can push PKD into kidney failure step by step. Since a right diet can help to delay kidney failure, it is necessary for us to change our diet if we are unfortunately diagnosed with PKD.Well then, what foods should we avoid with PKD?
1. Reduce animal proteins. Limit animal products to occasional broths, poultry, fish, low-fat cheese and egg whites, keeping quantities to 3 oz. per day or less.Foods like fish and egg white contain high quality protein which can meet the demand of our body and meanwhile produce less wastes. Therefore, it is helpful for PKD patients to limit protein intake and at the same time ingest some high quality protein.
2.Avoid excess amounts of salt, which causes your blood pressure to rise. This includes products like processed foods, soups, chips and soy sauce.
3. Drink much more water. Water helps to flush out waste products and also helps to avoid PKD complications like dehydration and kidney stones. In addition, if you are a PKD patient, please remember to avoid caffeine as it can cause dehydration. Caffeine is usually found in coffee, chocolate, black tea, green tea, white tea, cola and even some decaf products.
4. If possible, please stay far away from alcohol. Although drinking less alcohol causes no obvious influence on illness condition, it does not mean PKD patients can drink alcohol casually.
5. PKD patients may also suffer from high phosphorus when PKD develops to advanced stage.Under such a condition, foods with high phosphorus like nuts and bacon should be avoided.
Polycystic Kidney Disease patients should adjust their diet on the basis of their illness condition. Therefore, the above is the general introduction about about PKD diet. If you want to know the exact recipe for you, please feel free to consult us or leaving message to us.

How to Deal with Back Pain in Polycystic Kidney Disease

Different from other types of kidney problem like Nephrotic Syndrome, Polycystic Kidney Disease can bring patients severe back pain. Sometimes the pain is unbearable and patients can not concentrate on what they are doing. Well then, how does Polycystic Kidney Disease cause back pain and how to deal with pain caused by PKD?
How does Polycystic Kidney Disease cause back pain?
1.In cases of Polycystic Kidney Disease, patients usually suffer from sudden or acute back pain when there are infected cysts, urinary tract infection, a bursting cyst or kidney stones.
2.People with ADPKD often get persistent or chronic flank, lower back and/or abdominal pain that is not related to infection, bleeding into a cyst, or a kidney stone. This chronic pain is caused by developing cysts, pressure by cysts against other organs, changes in the back muscles and the spine due to enlarging cysts.
How to deal with back pain caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease?
An effective treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease should be able to help patients remitting symptoms. The followings are the common methods to alleviate kidney pain in PKD.
1. In general, drug treatment for pain should start with small doses of a weaker painkiller, gradually increasing to stronger medication as needed. Common medications for PKD include Paracetamol, No-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, Codeine,Antidepressants, and Tramadol and so on.
2. Treatment Polycystic Kidney Disease as a whole. In most of the cases, PKD patients feel pain in the location of kidney because of enlarged cysts. There are nerves in renal capsule which will be pulled when kidney cysts enlarge to a certain size. In this light, shrinking kidney cyst is very important. Kidney cyst enlarges with the increase of cystic fluids, so as long as we reduce fluids inside the cyst, kidney cyst is shrunk. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is an alternative treatment for PKD, which treats PKD by making pressure difference. It is natural and painless, so if you want to get kidney cysts shrunk, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy will be a good choice.
Need more about kidney pain in Polycystic Kidney Disease and treatment for PKD, please feel free to consult us. We are glad to help you solve any problems.

Urinary Tract Infection in Polycystic Kidney Disease

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) can cause many symptoms like high blood pressure, back pain, foamy urine, blood urine and urinary tract infection. Among these symptoms, urinary tract infection is especially common for woman with Polycystic Kidney Disease. These infections should always be taken seriously and fully investigated, because frequent urinary tract infections may worsen kidney function in some people with ADPKD.
How does Polycystic Kidney Disease cause urinary tract infection?
We know Polycystic Kidney Disease is marked by lots of cysts in kidney which can interfere with the normal flow of urine and even minor delays in the flow increase your chance of an infection. Also, kidney cysts can make infection by changing tissues of the kidneys. Bacteria that cause urinary tract infection enter the urinary tract through the urethra, which can explain why urinary tract infection is more common among female Polycystic Kidney Disease patients.
How to prevent urinary tract infection with Polycystic Kidney Disease?
Though Polycystic Kidney Disease patients are at high risk of developing urinary tract infection, the likelihood of frequent urinary tract infection can be reduced effective by following measures:
1. Drink more water, which can help to rush bacteria in your urinary tract away to some extent. But please first check with your doctor before you doing this in case you are on restricted fluids because of your kidney function.
2. Avoid fluids that can irritate the bladder like pure fruit juices, alcohol and caffeine-containing drinks.
Urinate every 2 hours during the day.
For women with PKD, they can do as follow:
1. Wash the genital area before sexual intercourse.
2. Drink some water before intercourse and urinate within 30 minutes afterwards.
3. Wipe from front to back after urinating or bowel movement.
4. Choose underwear made of natural materials such as cotton, and do not wear thongs, which can irritate the urethra.
5. Double-void' when urinating, by standing up after urinating and then re-sitting or squatting to release any remaining urine that could stay in the urinary tract and become stale.

Alternative Treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease

Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of kidney disorder in which a cluster of cysts grow inside and outside the kidney. These cysts have different size and with time goes by, they become larger and larger. Traditional treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease is oral medicines which only focus on symptoms. As PKD can not be treated from the root, PKD progresses to kidney failure in many cases.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is an external use of Chinese medicines and it is an alternative treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease.It treats Polycystic Kidney Disease differently from surgery. We know surgery is an medical procedure which is very pain and meanwhile can cause infection. For PKD patients, there are countless cysts and over time, these cysts become larger and larger. Surgery is only helpful for big cysts growing in the surface of kidney, so it does not play too big a part. However, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can treat all the cysts together as it shrinks kidney cyst by making pressure difference between inside the cyst and outside the cyst. We know fluid always flow towards the side with low pressure, so when blood pressure outside decreases to the level that lower than that inside the cyst, cystic fluids ooze out naturally. This treatment is not only helpful for big kidney cysts, but also for small kidney cysts. What is more, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is harmless and causes no side effects and pain.On the contrary, patients usually feel very comfortable after the treatment.
PKD is a hereditary kidney problem, so if there is anyone in your family has this problem, regularly physical examination is suggested, as a timely diagnosis and treatment is very helpful for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients to avoid End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).

How to Stop Creatinine 3.2 with Polycystic Kidney Disease

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)elevates creatinine level by decreasing kidney function. We know PKD is characterized by a great number of fluid-fulled cysts in kidneys. As time goes by, kidney function becomes poorer and poorer because of enlarged kidney cysts, and as a result, creatinine becomes higher and higher. When creatinine level increases to 5, dialysis or kidney transplant will be needed by Polycystic Kidney Disease patients, so it is necessary for PKD patients to get their creatinine level controlled before their disease goes to end stage kidney failure.
Creatinine 3.2 is very high and it indicates at least a half of kidney function has been damaged. Under such a condition, taking some medical measures is very necessary.
PKD impair kidney function through increasing kidney cysts. These cysts enlarge over time and they oppress surrounding renal intrinsic cells directly. To work normally, renal intrinsic cells need nutrition and oxygen, however when they are oppressed, they can not get nutrition and oxygen, as a result of which, they become damaged. When they are damaged, they can not work normally and consequently, kidney function decreases and creatinine level increases. Therefore, for PKD patients with creatinine 3.2, the best method for them to control creatinine level is to shrink kidney cysts.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is a new treatment for PKD. Different from surgery, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has no side effects and also it causes no pain. The major medicines in micro-Chinese medicines are herbs which grow naturally and contain no chemical component. Therefore, it is a safe and natural treatment for PKD patients. With Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, kidney cysts can be shrunk effectively and thus further kidney damages can be avoided. As long as there is no further kidney damages, creatinine stops increasing.

9cm kidney cyst: should I be worried?

In many cases, kidney cyst causes no kidney problem at all. However, if the kidney cyst is as large as 9cm, i am afraid we need to take some medical actions as kidney function may has been damaged by it.
Kidney cyst is a fluid collection in the kidney and it is more common among people with age over 50. Usually, if kidney cyst is less than 4cm and cause no symptoms, patients need not to worry about anything. However, if kidney cyst enlarges over time and meanwhile brings patients back pain, blood urine or protein urine, you should be alert as all these symptoms highly indicate your kidney function is impaired.
For a large kidney, if we do not remove it or shrink it effectively and timely, it will oppress more and more kidney tissues and make kidney function poorer and poorer. Under such a condition, kidney failure will be caused.
At present, there are different methods to deal with large kidney cyst. One is surgery. Surgery is the most conventional medical method and shows quick treatment effects. However, as it is painful and may cause infection, many patients do not want to do surgery. The another medical method that can help to deal with kidney cyst is Chinese medicine, especially micro-Chinese medicine osmotherapy. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is the external use of Chinese medicines. Different from tradition oral Chinese medicines, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy needs patients take no oral medicines and what patients need to do while receiving this therapy is to lie on the bed for 40 minutes.
With different medical method, we can receive different treatment effects while treating kidney cyst, so it is of great importance for us to choose a right treatment.

Horseshoe Kidney in Chinese Medicine

Horseshoe kidney is formed in an early embryo, referring to the condition that the upper pole of kidney as well as the lower pole fuse together. Man are 4 times likely to suffer from horseshoe kidney compared with woman. With horseshoe kidney, patients are at high risk of developing various kidney related diseases like kidney stone and nephritis. As for this problem, Chinese medicine can help us to solve it.
Horseshoe kidney causes kidney problem because of poor blood circulation. In normal cases, kidney is been-shaped internal organ with strong filtration function and reabsorption and so on. It help us discharge harmful metabolin and meanwhile conserve nutrition. However, due to horseshoe kidney, renal tubules are curving, which makes kidneys fail to excrete wastes. Under such a circumstances, toxins and other harmful substances pile up in the kidney and thus induce kidney stone, infection or other kidney related problem.
In term of this condition, we can adopt Chinese medicine to help horseshoe kidney patients prevent or reduce unnecessary kidney damages. Chinese medicine, especially Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, have function to extend blood vessels, against inflammation, against coagulation and degrade extracellular matrix. All these functions contribute to a good blood circulation for people with simple horseshoe kidney and help to minimize kidney function in case of kidney problem. Besides, Chinese medicine not only helps to prevent or alleviate kidney disease, meanwhile it can offer kidneys lots of nutritions. So Chinese medicine is very beneficial for people with horseshoe kidney, even if they have no other kidney problem.
Horseshoe is a congenital kidney problem. Although it's shape can not be normalized by Chinese medicine, it can function as normally as a normal kidney.

Treatment for IgA Nephropathy Without Immunosuppressive Agents

IgA Nephropathy is a world-wide disease and usually treated with immunosuppressive agents. However, with the occurrence of Immunotherapy, a natural medical treatment for immune diseases, immunosuppressive agents are not as dominant as they were in the past.
IgA Nephropathy is an autoimmune disease, which shows when large amounts of IgA immune complexes or other substances lodge in the mesangial area. These deposition induce inflammatory immune reaction and therefore cause kidney damages.
For treatment of immunosuppressive agents, it treats IgA Nephropathy through inhabiting inflammatory immune response. Inflammatory immune response damage renal tissues directly, so further kidney damages are prevented when immune response is blocked. However, the problem is that IgA immune complexes are not removed from mesangial area, which can lead to the reoccurrence of inflammatory immune response. Thereby, immunosuppressive agent is a method to treat IgA Nephropathy, but it is not the best and fundamental treatment.
Different from immunosuppressive agents, treatment of Immunotherapy focuses on removing immune complexes from the kidney. As long as these immune complexes are cleared away effectively, inflammatory immune response stop naturally and consequently, further kidney damages are avoided. Therefore, seeing from this aspect, treatment of Immunotherapy is more suitable and effective than immunosuppressive agents in treating IgA Nephropathy.
Also, people with IgA Nephropathy tend to control or remit their symptoms by taking some oral medicines. Actually, symptoms of IgA Nephropathy like blood urine occur just because kidneys are damaged and fail to work. So controlling symptoms is far from enough for patients to recover. If they really want to be free from IgA Nephropathy, the best and only treatment is to regulate their immune system and thus stop more IgA immune complexes from being produced in the body.
For more information about IgA Nephropathy, immunosuppressive agents or Immunotherapy, welcome to consult our experts on-line and it is free.

Immunotherapy: Latest Treatment for Type 2 Diabetes

Immunotherapy is a new but effective treatment for type 2 Diabetes which not only threat sufferers' life, but also push their descendants into a high risk of developing this disease. As the latest treatment of type 2 Diabetes, Immunotherapy brings great hope for diabetics as well as their offsprings to live a free life in future. Now, let's see why Immunotherapy is so effective to type 2 Diabetes and how it stop diabetes.
1. Immunotherapy alleviates or even stops insulin resistance.
Insulin resistance is the major cause of high blood sugar for type 2 Diabetes. Sugar, as a nutrition, should be used consumed by our body with the help of insulin to supply energy. However, because of insulin resistance, blood sugar can not be fully used, as a result of which, high blood sugar appears.
Immunotherapy helps type 2 Diabetes patients stop at least alleviate insulin resistance in serious cases, which can contribute to the effective consumption of blood sugar. As long as blood sugar is used effectively, high blood sugar lower naturally.
2. Immunotherapy helps to lower the susceptibility of developing type 2 Diabetes.
We know the person is more likely to develop type 2 Diabetes if his parents are diabetics, compared with these whose parents have no this disease. Why is this?
Type 2 Diabetes is not a hereditary disease, but the susceptibility of this disease can be passed down from generation to generation, that is to say people with parents suffering from type 2 Diabetes will not certainly suffer from Diabetes, but they are very likely to have this disease if their preventive measures are not enough and effective.
Immunotherapy can to lower the susceptibility of developing type 2 Diabetes, which means this treatment not only benefits diabetics, but also their children by making them get far away from Diabetes.
Immunotherapy has so many functions and what we mentioned above are just two of them. If you are interested in learning more information about it, please leave message to us and we will reply you within 24 hours.

Why Do People With Renal Failure Sleep So Long

Why do people with renal failure sleep so long? Many renal failure patients may found that they are drowsy and lack of energy to do anything. Is this normal? And what causes it?

Actually, drowsy or fatigue is one of the clinical behaviour of kidney problem, particularly renal failure. Therefore, if a kidney failure patient feel drowsy, it may be caused by his disease; however, we can not say one gets renal failure just because of he is listless.
Mostly, renal failure patients are sleepy because of anemia which occurs especially more easily in renal failure stage. In our blood, there is red blood cells that can help to bring oxygen to each of our tissues and cells. With anemia, there is no enough blood supply, as a result of which, oxygen supply is not enough as well. Without enough oxygen and energy, we feel tired and sleepy easily.
The followings are the specific description about fatigue in renal failure:
1. Want to sleep all the time
2. Have no energy and vigor to do anything, including matter what patients are interested in before.
3. Feel tired easily, even after mild physical activity.
Sleepiness is a common or we can say normal condition in our daily life. We need sleep as long as 8 hours every day to keep us being vigorous., so it is not necessary to go to doctor. However, for renal failure patients, they experience drowsiness due to their kidney problem. They may still want to sleep even if they have slept a very long time. Under such a circumstance, what they need to do is to repair kidney damages; otherwise, symptom of fatigue or drowsiness will become more and more serious. What is more, they will also experience other fatal complications like heart failure and cardiovascular diseases.
Drowsiness is not a fatal symptom of kidney failure and in some ways it does not deprive patent's life directly, but it indicates kidney function has been extremely poor. In this case, if patients leave it alone, their kidney condition will become moreserious and therefore their life will be threatened.
