PKD is a genetic disease which is generally born with. Patients with PKD will
have obvious symptoms after the middle age that slowly deteriorates. There are a
lot of cases in which PKD leads to renal failure. How to prevent PKD leading to
renal failure?
1. Take prompt measures to prevent and treat complications of PKD that
include cyst rupture, urinary tract infection, and high blood pressure. These
complications will speed up the deterioration of kidney function. So it is
important to treat these complications. But avoid the kidney-toxic drugs during
treatment.
2. Early detection. Since the symptoms of PKD occur after middle age, a part
of people don’t notice PKD until the complications happen. It is very dangerous
and it is very hard to control the disease. People who have the family history
of PKD need to regular do tests.
3. Home remedy. Keep good moods and avoid overwork. Follow the doctor’s
advice. Have a light diet and eat more fruits. Control the intake of protein. It
is better for your health to give up smoking and alcohol. When high blood
pressure is serous and edema happens, restrict the salt intake. Properly
exercise but avoid the extensive exercise.
The above is the some methods which help you prevent PKD leading to renal
failure. Hope it is useful to you.

Process of Renal Fibrosis in Polycystic Kidney Disease
How does cysts of PKD happen and why they can cause renal function injury?
PKD belongs to hereditary Kidney Diseases. Injuring process of PKD is mainly the
process of Renal Fibrosis.
Congenital gene mutation can cause cystic gene secretion which can enlarge cysts of Polycystic Kidney. Under the action of cystic wall, tubular basement membrane become abnormal, and continuously secrete growth factors, like EGF, TGF-β, IGF，etc, which can increase proliferation and secretion of epithelial cells on tubular wall of Polycystic Kidney. Proliferation of epithelial cells can cause renal tubule obstruction which can lead to fluid retention in upper tubular, and then cysts forms.
Besides, proliferation of epithelial cells can also lead to semi-obstruction at cysts neck, which causes difficulties for fluid to go out of human body. For this reason, cysts can keep growing.
With the development of Renal Fibrosis, synthesis of Extracellular Matrix increases, with less degradation, which causes an unbalance between ECM synthesis and degradation. Massive ECM deposit and accumulate in human body, resulting in Glomerular Sclerosis and renal tubular atrophy. Renal fibrosis tissue replaces healthy nephron gradually, and finally Renal Fibrosis forms.
According to pathogenesis of congenital Polycystic Kidney Disease, there are three main causes of cysts forming and developing. Firstly, cystic gene of PKD. Secondly, proliferation and secretion of renal tubule and epithelial cells on cyst wall. Thirdly, composition changes of ECM as well as development of Renal Fibrosis.
There are very few discomforts in the early stage of Polycystic Kidney Disease which is the main reason why the disease is always neglected by patients. Patients are suggested to accept treatment as early as possible, in order to avoid renal function injury and prevent Renal Fibrosis developing into cicatricial tissue, aggravating to Uremia.

Diagnosis Methods of Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease
Presently, Adult PKD is mostly diagnosed by clinical symptoms and Imaging
Examination. In recent years, with the development of molecular genetic
technology, gene can be taken as a method to diagnose Adult PKD.
Clinical diagnosis: though there is not a common view on clinical diagnosis of Adult PKD, primary clinical diagnosis standard can be listed as follow: patients usually have clinical symptoms when they get around 40 years old. Clinical symptoms of swelling pain on waist and up back, Hypertension, Haematuria, abdominal masses, urinary tract infection and renal colic, complicated with urinary tract stone as well as Polycystic liver, Polycystic spleen and intracranial aneurysm can appear. Appearance of clinical symptoms means that cysts has already damaged renal parenchyma seriously. With time going on, this damage will be aggravated. Early clinical diagnosis always depends on familial history and imaging examination.
Imaging examination is the main method to diagnose Adult PKD.
Firstly, Ultrasonic Examination: ultrasonic examination is taken as the first choice to diagnose ADPKD, because it has a high sensitivity with no radioactivity and no trauma and it is also low-cost and convenient. Besides, ultrasonic examination is also used as an important method to make an prenatal diagnosis and to check the condition of patients' lineal consanguinity. Through Type-B ultrasonic examination, bilateral kidneys enlargement and irregular kidney shape can be found. Besides, round or oval cysts with various sizes can be found in kidneys, spreading the whole kidney. Cysts lose their smooth shape due to pressure to each other caused by each cyst. some patients may also be found Polycystic Liver or Polycystic Spleen through examination.
Secondly, CT : this is also an important method to diagnose ADPKD. Small cysts with diameter of 0.3cm to 0.5 cm can be found in bilateral kidneys. It has a significant role in making an early diagnosis of ADPKD. However, CT has radioactivity, so patients who suffer from early stage of PKD are not suggested to take this examination.
Thirdly, Other imaging examination: KUB and IVU can show enlarged kidney shadow, with irregular shape. Renal calices and renal pelvis can be changed normal shape and stretched as well as removed. Besides, cystoscopic urography and renoarteriography can also be used to diagnose ADPKD.
Gene diagnosis method: with continuous orientation and clone on gene of PKD patients, it is more possible to make an exact gene diagnosis of PKD and gene treatment of PKD. However, gene treatment is still in a start-up stage. Presently, there are two kinds of PKD diagnosis methods by gene: analysis on gene mutation and analysis on gene linkage.

Reasons That Can Cause PKD Patients Death
What are the reasons that can cause PKD patients death? Renal Insufficiency
which can be found in every age is the main cause of patients’ death. As for
patients older than 60, 45% of them may get the illness condition developed into
end stage Renal Failure. According to foreign investigation, the average time of
renal function injury developing into End Stage Renal Failure is about 10 years.
Once glomerular filtrating rate decreases to less than 50ml per minute, its
descent speed may be 5ml per minute in a year.
Renal Insufficiency is mainly caused by cysts which can compress renal parenchyma and reduce blood flow in renal blood vessel and effective filtrating rate. In addition, interstitium fibrosis and declined concentrated function and excreting ability caused by renal tubular pathological changes as well as renal blood vessel sclerosis caused by Hypertension can block toxin being filtrated, and then Renal Insufficiency appears.
Besides, other factors may also affect renal function aggravated speed.
Firstly, gene: PKD patients who suffer from gene mutation will die 10 years earlier than patients who do not suffer from gene mutation.
Secondly, inheritance factor: patients who inherit this disease from mother will die earlier than patients who get this disease from father.
Thirdly, gender: female can be later than male, except for patients who suffer from Liver Cyst at the same time.
Fourthly, Haematuria, Albuminuria as well as urinary tract infection and other infections can aggravate renal function. Besides, pregnancy can also affect renal function.
These factors can be independent or co-existent, both of which can lead to renal function injury.
All the above factors may cause patients death. Patients should pay more attention on these factors. The key reason of PKD recurrence is that renal fibrosis can not be blocked from its root cause and renal function can not be protected effectively. As for treatment of PKD, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is an effective treatment to treat PKD through activating blood and dredging channels, removing blood stasis and eliminating toxin as well as repairing and renewing. It has helped many PKD patients to live a normal life with illness.

Symptoms in Late Stage Polycystic Kidney Disease
Most PKD patients seldom have symptoms in early stage of Polycystic Kidney
Disease due to concealed characteristic of this disease. But if this disease
develops into late stage, cysts grow gradually and compress kidneys, causing
different symptoms. There are several symptoms of late stage PKD in following
passage.
Firstly, cysts are in round shape with various sizes.
Secondly, Haematuria: due to growing size of cysts, cyst rupture may happen, and then Haematuria appear. Cyst rupture may be mainly caused by strenuous exercise or excessive tiredness. Once this situation appears, patients should be sent to hospital as quickly as possible in order to avoid cyst secondary rupture and illness condition worsening.
Thirdly, some complications such as retinopathy may happen. High Blood Pressure may lead to eyeground arterial sclerosis, which can reduce blood supply to retina. Besides, massive Haematuria can cause sudden hemoglobin decline, which can worsen optic neuropathy and blood supply condition, resulting in secondary optic atrophy.
Fourthly, with cysts growing, kidney volume increases to 10 times with normal ones. Kidney has abnormal shape such as malformation of renal calices and renal pelvis.
Fifth, renal function can be damaged completely with cysts of PKD growing, which can lead to Renal Insufficiency and Uremia.
PKD patients should accept timely and active treatment in order to prevent illness condition developing into Renal Failure or even Uremia. As for treatment of PKD, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can treat PKD effectively through three steps of activating blood and dredging channels, removing blood stasis and eliminating toxin, repairing and renewing. This treatment can treat PKD from its root cause. PKD patients can live healthily with this disease, if cysts growth can be controlled effectively.

Developing Process of Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease
In the early stage Adult PKD, cysts are still small, so patients seldom have
obvious symptoms in this stage. With cysts growing and increasing, they can
compress surrounding renal tissue greatly. Then obvious symptoms appear. Pain on
waist usually happens firstly in early stage, but it is usually neglected by
most patients and no treatment can be taken to treat this symptom. Growing cysts
can replace more and more normal renal tissue, causing larger pressure on
surrounding renal tissue, and then End Stage Renal Failure appears.
Ⅰ. What is the hereditary regulation of Adult PKD?
Adult PKD follows the regulation of autosomal dominant inheritance, with equal incidence to both male and female. Each of the parents suffers from this disease, each of their children can get this disease at a risk of 50%, and this number can increase to 75% if both parents have this disease. Children who do not inherit PKD do not carry cystic gene, and their later generation won’t have this disease if they marry with person who do not suffer from PKD. Besides inherited from parents, patients who get this disease through gene mutation are rarely seen.
Ⅱ. Does PKD have a serious illness condition when it happens?
Generally, there are no obvious symptoms in early stage PKD. For this reason, most patients are not diagnosed as PKD in this stage. Common primary symptoms that may appear in early stage of PKD are High Blood Pressure, Haematuria, bellyache, and sometimes Urinary tract infection and Kidney Stone can be found among primary symptoms.
Each disease develops from slowly and lightly to rapidly and seriously, and PKD is no exception. Due to strong compensatory ability of kidney, there are seldom obvious clinical symptoms when kidney is injured by cysts or other external factors in the early stage. Patients can live, work and study normally.
Ⅲ. How about the process of PKD developing into Uremia?
PKD is a kind of disease that so many cysts are growing in whole kidney. These cysts are growing with age, causing pressure on kidneys, which can damage renal structure and reduce nephron number. Finally, kidneys are so injured that they can not maintain body’s normal life. At this moment, Uremia happens.
More exactly, the process of Renal Failure and Uremia is also the process of Renal Fibrosis, and Renal Failure and Uremia is the result of more than 50% kidney fibrosis.
Specialists on Kidney Disease point out that the earlier treatment is taken, the better therapeutic effect can get. The best treating timing is before renal function injury. Renal Failure and Uremia can be avoided completely if cysts of PKD growth can be removed or controlled effectively in the early stage.

Urinary Tract Infection of Polycystic Kidney Disease
Urinary tract infection which includes cystitis, nephropyelitis, cyst
infection and perinephric abscess is a common complication of PKD patients.
About 20% patients get urinary tract infection as first symptom among clinical
symptoms, and 50% t0 70% patients have urinary tract infection at least one time
during their life, especially for female patients. It has been observed in the
past that one third PKD patients who accept chronic dialysis have the symptom of
urinary tract infection. Though antibiotic is taken to deal with infection,
which can delay illness development, patients still can get perinephric abscess,
or even sometimes patients may die. There are some difficulties in treat
Polycystic Kidney Disease, especially in the aspects of preventing and treating
urinary tract infection.
Patients who suffer from PKD, complicated with cystitis, are mainly expressed by urgent urination, Odynuria and pain on pubis arch area. If infection has involved upper urinary tract, patients may have continuous high fever and waist pain. Clinically, it is some difficult to distinguish nephropyelitis from cyst infection. It is beneficial to diagnose nephropyelitis if urine culture shows positive with increasing blood leukocyte number and quick response to anti-infection treatment. While positive blood culture and pressing pain always refers to cyst infection.
When patients suspect themselves of urinary tract infection, they should accept an imaging examination. Abdominal plain film can show the position, size and numbers of urinary system stones as well as perinephric abscess. CT examination has a better sensitivity of testing perinephric abscess. As for PKD patients suffering from urinary tract infection, equipment inspection can increase the possibility of patients getting blood poisoning. For this reason, Retrograde Pyelography should be avoided.
Choosing effective antibiotics is the key of treating this disease successfully. As for patients who suffer from recurrent urinary tract infection, antibiotics are helpful to prevent infection. If equipment inspection on urinary tract is inevitable, patients should take proper antibiotic to prevent infection in 24 hours before or after treatment.

Symptoms Caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease
Most PKD patients do not have clinical symptoms in the early stage. While in
end stage, due to cysts as well as increasing cyst internal pressure and
infections, most patients can get the following symptoms:
1. Albuminuria: generally, protein content in urine is tiny, no more than 2g each 24 hours. Nephrotic Syndrome seldom occurs.
2. Abdominal masses: this is also the main reason why patients do to hospital for a check. Enlarged kidneys can be touched among 60% to 80% PKD patients. Normally, the larger kidneys are, the lower renal function is.
3. High Blood Pressure: cysts compress kidneys, which can lead to renal ischemia and increase renin secretion, causing High Blood Pressure. When renal function is normal, more than 50% patients can get High Blood Pressure. This number can be much higher when renal function declines.
4. Haematuria: this symptoms can be expressed by microscopic Haematuria and gross Haematuria, occurs periodically. Patients usually feel really painful when Haematuria appears, and this pain can be more serious after strenuous exercise, trauma and infection. There are a large amount of arteries under cyst wall. Due to growing pressure or complicated infection, blood vessel of cyst wall can bleed for excessive tensility.
5. Renal function decline: growing cysts will replace and compress normal renal tissue, which can reduce healthy renal tissue obviously, causing progressive decline of renal function.
6. Pain or discomfort on waist and abdomen: kidney enlargement can increase tensility of renal capsule. Besides, more cysts in kidneys can increase water content of kidneys, which can make kidney heavier, leading waist pain.

Can Season Affect PKD Illness Condition
In spring, everything has a new life, and this is a season favorable for
Kidney Disease patients’ recovery. But there is too much wind in spring, which
is easy to cause wind-pathogen. In hot summer, patients are easy to be injured
by fire-pathogen. Besides, it is hot and wet in summer and heat or dampness can
also damage human body. Autumn is really dry, so patients should care about
dryness which can damage Yin of lung and kidney. Winter is cold, which can make
Kidney Disease patients get Yang injury easily.
From clinical viewpoint, the hottest and coldest seasons are both unfavorable for patients’ illness condition. Hot weather is easy to cause various infections like urinary tract infection, gastrointestinal tract infection and upper respiratory tract infection and so on, all of which can speed up the development of PKD illness condition directly or indirectly. PKD patients, especially patients in third or fourth stage, usually have much lower immunity. They are easy to catch a cold, which can not only worsen PKD illness condition, but also affect blood pressure condition.
Specialists on Kidney Disease note that: as for PKD patients, the best treating timings are spring and autumn, which can reduce disadvantages existing in summer and winter.
Besides, infectious disease may occur in each season, so PKD patients should pay more attention in order to prevent infections and colds and so on. This can decrease the chance of damaging kidney.
The key of treating PKD is to block Renal Fibrosis, repair injured renal inherent cells and protect remained renal function. Micro-Chinese Medicine is suggested to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease. It has been improved by clinical practices that this treatment has a good effect on treating PKD and this treatment can treat PKD by blocking Renal Fibrosis, prolonging patients’ life greatly.

Should PKD Patients Abstain from Alcohol
Is it necessary for PKD patients to abstain from alcohol? Most PKD patients
who are fund of alcohol usually ask this question. As for this question,
specialists on Kidney Disease warn that PKD patients must get away from alcohol
in order to protect their healthy. Drinking can cause many adverse impacts on
PKD patients’ health.
After research, scientists found that liquor, especially white wine, should be forbidden firstly for patients who suffer from Polycystic Kidney Disease due to strong stimulation of liquor to kidneys. Alcohol can stimulate the activity of Polycystin directly, which can increase cyst fluid secretion and speed up cysts growth.
A favorable internal environment is necessary to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease. However, frequent drink can increase blood pressure and remove bound water of cells. Besides, frequent drink can cause hyperfunction of creatinine metabolism, which can increase serum creatinine content. When alcohol is degraded, it can release acid substances which can lead to metabolic acidosis, expressed by nausea, low appetite, gloomy spirit as well as headache and other symptoms. Long-term drink can also lead to Anemia, function disorder of platelet and various bleedings. What’s more, excessive drink can result in malabsorption and nutrition deficiency which make organic body utilize vitamin B1 and vitamin B2 as well as folic acid in a low efficiency and increase vitamin B6 excretion. Hyperlipidemia and Atherosclerosis can also be caused by alcohol intake. All these are damaged that drink can bring to body, which is really harmful to PKD patients’ recovery.
In addition, alcohol can also injure kidneys. It can affect nitrogen balance of organic body, increase proteolysis and increase urea nitrogen content in blood, all of which can burden kidney heavily. As for healthy people, this problem is not so serious. But as for PKD patients, this is a severe problem to recovery.
However, besides abstaining from alcohol, PKD patients should also accept active treatment which is the key of treating Polycystic Kidney Disease. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can treat Polycystic Kidney Disease effectively.

Analysis of PKD Hypertension
As for PKD patients, cysts with various sizes spread over the whole renal
cortex and renal medulla. Cysts space is much larger than renal parenchyma.
Kidneys enlarge obviously with grapelike outline. There are light yellow liquid
on cut surface of kidney. With cysts growing and increasing, they will compress
healthy renal tissue, causing renal ischemia and anoxia as well as low renal
perfusion. Then PKD patients may get Hypertension.
Hypertension caused by PKD is different from Primary Hypertension which can be controlled by dilating blood vessel or preventing blood vessel shrinking. Hypotensor has some certain effect on controlling Hypertension caused by early stage PKD. However, during the process of taking hypotensor, the dosage will be increased gradually, and finally blood pressure will be difficult to be controlled.
If Nephrotic Hypertension happening to PKD patients can not be controlled effectively, kidney injury and renal fibrosis can aggravate and serum creatinine increases. Meanwhile, aggravated illness condition can increase blood pressure continuously, which can lead to heart enlargement and Heart Failure. Some patients may have rapidly developing illness condition. With renal functional injury, Chronic Renal Insufficiency, or even Uremia occurs finally.
Once PKD patients get Hypertension, they should accept active treatment in time instead of self-medication. Due to individual illness condition, patients’ condition can aggravate seriously, or even death can be caused, if patients take nephrotoxic medicine unconsciously. So patients should take medicine under doctor’s advice in order to control blood pressure and repair injured kidney scientifically.
The key of treating Hypertension caused by PKD is to treat the disease of PKD in order to reduce cystic pressure on kidney and decrease cyst internal pressure, which can remove the pressure on surrounding nephron caused by cysts and relieve the condition of renal ischemia and anoxia, delaying the process of Renal Fibrosis.

Hypertension caused by PKD is different from Primary Hypertension which can be controlled by dilating blood vessel or preventing blood vessel shrinking. Hypotensor has some certain effect on controlling Hypertension caused by early stage PKD. However, during the process of taking hypotensor, the dosage will be increased gradually, and finally blood pressure will be difficult to be controlled.
If Nephrotic Hypertension happening to PKD patients can not be controlled effectively, kidney injury and renal fibrosis can aggravate and serum creatinine increases. Meanwhile, aggravated illness condition can increase blood pressure continuously, which can lead to heart enlargement and Heart Failure. Some patients may have rapidly developing illness condition. With renal functional injury, Chronic Renal Insufficiency, or even Uremia occurs finally.

Is It Easy to Treat PKD
PKD conforms to the discipline of autosomal dominant inheritance, that is,
there is an equal incidence for male and female; if one of the parents gets this
disease, children have 50% of rate to get cystic gene and suffer from PKD; if
parents get this disease, children’s incidence of PKD can rise up to 75%;
children without PKD do not carry cystic gene and their children will not get
this disease, if he or she get matched to an opposite sex who do not have this
disease, reversion can also not occur. Compared with parents’ inheritance,
patients who get Polycystic Kidney Disease resulting from genetic mutation is
really few.
The development of any disease has an order of importance and emergency, no exception for PKD. What’s more, kidney has a powerful compensatory ability. At the early time when kidney is disturbed by cysts or inflammations, patients usually have no apparent clinical signs and they can still live, work and learn normally.
What is the course for PKD developing into Uremia?
Polycystic kidney means the kidneys are full of cysts with different sizes, and these cysts can grow with age. They can compress kidney parenchyma and damage renal structure so that decrease the quantity of nephrons which can produce urine. Gradually, kidney is so damaged that it can not sustain a person’s normal living and Uremia occurs at this moment. Accurately speaking, the occurrence of Renal Failure and Uremia is the product of Renal Fibrosis. Moreover, they occur only when 50% of nephrons, or above, is damaged.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can block the progression of Renal Fibrosis. Then what is the function of Micro-Chinese Medicine in the course of treatment?
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can block the course of Renal Fibrosis effectively, which is an important measure to control the aggravation of disease. Blocking Renal Fibrosis means damaged renal inherent cells can be reversed so that renal function attains recovery and pathological agents are eliminated.
It can shrink cysts so that cysts’ pressure to tissue around can be reduced rapidly. Micro-Chinese Medicine can restore damaged renal tissues, with the minimum lesion to kidney. The occurrence of Renal Insufficiency and Uremia can be avoided if cysts are eliminated or its progression is controlled in the early stages.

How to Nurse PKD Patients with Complications
I, Hematuria
Nearly 60～80% of PKD patients has different extent of Microscopic Hematuria, and some patients may present gross Hematuria. To eliminate small amount of bleeding through kidney rapidly, patients are advised to drink much water, in addition to staying in bed. The variation of urine color needs figuring out so as to judge that Hematuria aggravates or reduces. If PKD patients have obvious Hematuria, they should stay in bed for a long time. Moreover, hemostatic styptic should be injected into human body through vein promptly, and blood transfusion can be conducted if necessary.
II, Perirenal Hematoma
Patients need to stay in bed absolutely after taking Renal Biopsy within 24hrs. To get patients’ cooperation, doctors can inform them of the importance of staying in bed absolutely and potential complications of severe activities, in case that patients cannot endure staying in bed. If patients have no gross Hematuria and stay in bed for 24hrs, they can do some moderate activities gradually but not increase activities abruptly so as to avoid the secondary bleeding when the wound does not heal completely. At this moment, patients should be prohibited to do more exercises and get adequate cares in daily life. If Perirenal Hematoma is found by Type-B Ultrasound Examination, patients need to extend the time of staying in bed.
III, Lumbago and waist discomfort
Most of patients have slight ipsilateral lumbago and waist discomfort which lasts nearly one week usually. In most cases, ordinary painkiller can be given to moderate the symptoms. PKD patients with Perirenal Hematoma usually suffer from severe lumbago, in this case, patients can take narcotic analgesic agent to relieve the pain.
IV, Stomachache and Abdominal Distension
Some individuals feel stomachache after Renal Biopsy, which lasts 1-7 days usually and small number of patients have pressing pain and rebound tenderness. Life habit changing, abdominal belt pressing and drinking more water cause patients to present abdominal distension which does not need special treatment. Patients with obvious stomachache and abdominal distension can take lactasin or spasmolytic to relieve the symptoms.
V, Pyrexia
Patients with Perirenal Hematoma may present medium Pyrexia due to Hematoma absorption. They should be nursed as per fever patients and given proper medicine for treatment.
For further information about nursing issue about PKD patients, you can email me at kidney-treatment@hotmail.com. It’s my pleasure to give you professional and instruction suggestions.

Could PKD Patients Drink Milk After Operation
Qualified protein occupies nearly 80% of the total protein in milk. Milk not
only contains various and large amount of essential amino-acid of human body,
but its protein structure is very approaching to human body, so nutrient
component in milk can be absorbed and utilized more readily. In addition to
protein, other components in milk are also beneficial to PKD patients. Hence, it
is available for PKD patients to drink milk after operation.
Nephrotic patients take small large of protein so they are not limited to take more calories. The content of fat in milk reaches 2%—3.2% and it has a great amount of calories and is easy to be absorbed, so milk is very suitable for nephritic patients to drink. Long-term drinking milk can make skin smooth, and it can moderate dry skin and withered and yellow hair caused by disease. Carbohydrate in milk is lactose which can adjust gastric acid, promote the peristalsis of intestine and stomach, facilitate secretion of digestive gland and boost calcium absorption.
The content of lactose in milk is not very high, nearly 10g. Therefore, even patients with Diabetic Nephropathy can drink a bag of milk without extra sugar which cannot arouse glucose fluctuation. Whereas, patients of End Stage Chronic Renal Failure usually have Edema and Oliguria so they must limit water intake. Milk contains much water and is considered as a kind of water, so patients in this stage need to restrict milk intake.

A letter from A PKD Patient
I am from Xi’an, Shanxi Province, and my family name is Qiu, so people always
call me Old Qiu. The year before last, my younger sister was detected Polycystic Kidney Disease (hereinafter called PKD). Since then, I also felt uncomfortable
from head to foot, without clear reason. I often felt abdominal pain and felt
better if I pressed the abdominal area for a while. The doctor said this disease
was inherited, so I was scared very much and worried whether I got PKD also.
Later, I went to the hospital to have a check, and the result really let me
disappointed. Just as a proverb said, ‘what you scared will haunt you’. I also
suffered from PKD and the below was my Case:
Constant Angina occurred in left upper abdomen, but did not radiate into lower abdomen and legs. Enclosed mass can be touched when pain occurs, it felt somewhat hard. Pain could be relieved if pressing the abdominal area for a while. Hiccup and taking gas occur occasionally.
Type-B Ultrasound Examination, CT, Reinforced CT, UTP and renal pelvis imaging presented a clear diagnosis that I had bilateral Polycystic Kidneys, Left Kidney Stone, Left Kidney Dropsy, Left Ureter Expansion and Polycystic Liver.
I didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem unless I got the checking report. Before I went to hospital for a check. I held a fluky attitude that I could not get sick. But the consequence was really out of my expectation, so many diseases haunted me.
My eldest daughter let me in hospital in the same day. How strange for a person who was not normal any more as long as the person lay in the bed. I felt so bored, and I had aversion to doctors, nurses, my wife, my daughter and my son-in-law. I stayed in hospital for 21 days with reluctance, which let me feel in prison. I returned to home immediately once the symptoms got improved. The basic reason was doctors’ talking and behavior manifest that this disease could never be treated. Then why should I stay in hospital?
When I was back to home, my elder daughter suggested me to Beijing for the treatment; my younger daughter was working in Nanjing and asked me to there for a treatment. Although I only have two daughters, they are very filial to me and have some talents. I usually talked with wardmate, and they said no filial children in front of a patient for long. They often complained the difficulty that they could not afford the medical charge. Compared with them, I felt lucky. My two daughters sought qualified hospital to treat Kidney Disease here and there. I nearly got treatment in famous hospital in Beijing, Shanghai, and Nanjing since 2007 to 2009. Besides, I went to Australia for treatment for a while. However, my Polycystic Kidneys became more and more swelling and Serum Creatinine got higher and higher. I once thought about taking an operation, but some experts said it would not have pleasant curative effect to get operation for me at such an age, so I got rid of operation.
Since I got PKD, my elder daughter purchased a car and arranged a driver for us. From that time on, our life was just like the AD said, ‘they are on their way to hospital if they were not in home.’ Our neighbors often asked us’ which hospital you will go this time’. We lead such a life nearly for two years. People usually said you can have nothing except for money and you can have anything except for disease. However, I have money but my disease cannot be treated.
I felt my disease was really uncurable. Now that I would die sooner or later, I did not want to toss about myself any more in such an age. So I kept a straight face and told my family,’ no more treatment, just wait to die! My wife just cried again and again, and I felt more perturbed to hear her crying. My daughters still contacted hospitals everywhere. Later, a PKD patient said he got pleasant curative effect in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital.
I just shrugged this unknown hospital off when my children strongly recommended me to get treatment in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital. I had been to so many famous hospitals and attained little curative effect, so I did not believe in at all that there would be any better hospital in Shijiazhuang. However, I felt a little emotional when my daughter mentioned that this hospital allow patients to visit. Many hospital would not let you access into ward, if you did not be in hospital. This hospital could open wards to the public, and this let me believe in they have the qualifications to treat kidney disease or else their reputations are probably to be stained by those who did not attained good effects. I also thought that it does not matter but this disease can be inherited, where my children should go to treat this disease when they are sick.
I became open-minded once I thought this issue. Move! No matter how big or small the hospital is, whatever specialized or complicated, we just go there! So my wife and I, accompanied with two daughters drove to this hospital from Shanxi.
This hospital was moderate-sized, and the park was very tidy and ordered. I felt cozy when I walked along the ward. When you saw a staff walking towards you, every one nodded and said’ hello’, which is very comfortable. The expert made a judgment at first then arrange necessary test for me. The test report presented Bilateral Polycystic Kidneys, Left Kidney Stones and Polycystic Liver.
Left kidney size: 21x6.5x6.1cm, right kidney size: 17x7.2x6.3cm and the biggest cysts was 8.0x6.0cm.
I felt nothing special on the initial two days, except for their Micro-Chinese Medicine. It felt like massage when the medicine put on the waist, but I still have my confusion about its curative effect. And other assistant western medicines seem to be similar with other hospitals’ administration. Another point was doctors and nurses attitudes are rather nice which could not be felt in other hospitals. But what patients concern most is the curative effect while the service is the second.
Unconsciously, one month passed. I got some tests again, and the results really astonished me. Left kidney size transformed 21x6.5x6.1cm at the very beginning into 15 x 6.1 x 4.2cm, the right kidney also turned small and the cysts also became shrunk. Frankly speaking, I did not believe that this medium-sized hospital can treat my PKD with such a pleasant effect, because I experienced so many famous hospitals but not attained any good effects. I got such a pleasant effect only within one month, which really makes me assure their qualifications.
Soon, my admitting doctor said’ old pal, you can leave the hospital!’ I felt so happy because home is more comfortable than hospital after all. My doctor said, using Micro-Chinese Medicine to fortify the treatment, your kidney can recover gradually.
How did this hospital treat PKD? I cannot say it clear, but they use Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, which is a Chinese medicine with external application. Patients do not need operation and injection to treat kidney diseases which is unique in this hospital. Moreover, this hospital opens their ward to the public, and patients can have a visit and talk with other inpatients. Whether you stay in hospital or not after your visit is totally up to you.

PKD Patients How to Protect Kidney
If PKD patients can not take active treatment to control their disease when
symptoms of Renal Insufficiency appear, this disease may develop into terrible
Uremia. As for PKD patients who suffering from Renal Insufficiency, what should
they do to protect their kidneys?
Illness condition of most patients develops into Renal Insufficiency due to improper treatment or delayed treatment. For this reason, the first thing should be done is to adopt effective treatment to treat PKD in order to control cyst growing or even shrink cysts, which can decrease pressure on kidney tissue caused by cysts and reduce kidney tissue injury. Besides active and effective treatment, a proper diet is also required.
Firstly, PKD patients who suffer from Renal Insufficiency should have a proper protein intake which is the origin of most metabolic products. For this reason, protein intake should adapt to the excreting function of kidney. For example, when serum creatinine is in the range of 170 to 440 umol/L, protein intake is better in 0.6g/kg and if patients have serious proteinuria, 1.5g protein can be added according to 1g losing protein in urine. If serum creatinine is more than 440 umol/L. protein intake should be reduced further and control under 30g per day. However, if patients limit their protein intake unscientifically, they may have malnutrition and worse body condition, which is not better to patients.
Secondly, in order to make ingested protein have the largest utilization and prevent ingested protein turning into energy, when PKD patients limit their protein intake, they should take enough energy in a level at least 35 kilocalorie per kilogram body weight in 24 hours. This can mainly provided by sugar.
Thirdly, some foods are not suitable to be taken though these foods are in the range of the above two points because these foods are rich in phosphorus which can cause kidney function decline further once phosphorus deposit in body. These foods include egg yolk, dried meat floss, animal innards as well as dairy products and bone marrow, etc. In order to reduce phosphorus content, some foods like fish, meat and potato, should be boiled in water firstly and then cooked for meals. The boiled soup should not be taken.
Fourthly, salt intake should be limited according to individual illness condition. As for PKD patients, if they have symptoms of Hypertension or Edema, they should have a diet with low salt, within 2g per day.
Meanwhile, PKD patients should avoid nephrotoxic medicines which can injure kidney. Some other diseases like Hypertension, Diabetes and infections should be paid high attention because these diseases can also damage kidney and aggravate kidney function.

New Breakthrough of Treating PKD
PKD is the short term of Polycystic Kidney Disease which is a kind of genetic
Kidney Disease. There are so many cysts growing in kidneys. In the early stage
of this disease, the cysts are usually so small that they seldom cause related
symptoms, which always make people neglect it. When symptoms appear and patients
begin to pay attention on it, kidneys have been already injured into some
degree. If patients can not accept proper treatment in time to control the
development of this disease, this disease may develop into more serious stage,
Renal Failure or Uremia stage. Well then, what treatment can be adopted to
control this disease development?
As for Western Medicine treatment, most people know that surgical operations can only be used as an expedient treatment. Besides operation trauma, repeated occurrence of cysts is the most troublesome problem for PKD patients. For this reason, both patients and doctors begin to find a new treatment that can treat PKD effectively with no operation and less reoccurrence.
After many years of research, Micro-Chinese Medicine is developed out and has shown great effect on treating PKD. This treatment starts with activating kidney blood circulation, increasing permeability of cyst wall as well as increasing the resorption of cyst fluid and inhibiting the activity of epithelial cells which has the function of secreting cyst fluid. Through these methods, cysts can be under control and shrunk gradually. Cysts growing and increasing is the main cause of PKD aggravation. With cysts growing, they can compress kidneys greatly, causing series of consequences like renal ischemia, anoxia and kidney function decline, etc. Based on this point, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy shrinks cysts by reducing cyst fluid secretion instead of removing cysts which is usually used in western medicine treatment. For this reason, after adopting Micro-Chinese Medicine, when cysts have been shrunk, they seldom grow big for a second time and the illness condition of PKD patients seldom reoccurs.
Though PKD can not be treated completely, it can be controlled in a certain degree which will not affect patients’ normal life. However, only proper and effective treatment in time is the key of controlling PKD. PKD patients should set up a correct opinion on treating PKD instead of giving up treatment or feeling desperate because gene problem can not be solved. If you need any help or have any questions about related treatment on PKD, you can consult us online or send an email to kidney-treatment@hotmail.com.
As for Western Medicine treatment, most people know that surgical operations can only be used as an expedient treatment. Besides operation trauma, repeated occurrence of cysts is the most troublesome problem for PKD patients. For this reason, both patients and doctors begin to find a new treatment that can treat PKD effectively with no operation and less reoccurrence.
After many years of research, Micro-Chinese Medicine is developed out and has shown great effect on treating PKD. This treatment starts with activating kidney blood circulation, increasing permeability of cyst wall as well as increasing the resorption of cyst fluid and inhibiting the activity of epithelial cells which has the function of secreting cyst fluid. Through these methods, cysts can be under control and shrunk gradually. Cysts growing and increasing is the main cause of PKD aggravation. With cysts growing, they can compress kidneys greatly, causing series of consequences like renal ischemia, anoxia and kidney function decline, etc. Based on this point, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy shrinks cysts by reducing cyst fluid secretion instead of removing cysts which is usually used in western medicine treatment. For this reason, after adopting Micro-Chinese Medicine, when cysts have been shrunk, they seldom grow big for a second time and the illness condition of PKD patients seldom reoccurs.

Few obvious symptoms can be found in the early stage of PKD. Therefore, most
patients do not pay enough attention on it and most patients are tested out PKD
through routine body check in this stage. So many patients do not know they are
having this disease until they go to hospital for tests and examinations due to
appearance of obvious symptoms. For this reason, learn more about the symptoms
of PKD is important for patients to have a general understanding about their
condition.
Firstly, patients may feel painful on waist or discomfort in abdominal region. Most patients may think that such feeling may be caused by tiredness or careless crash or other factors. Actually, waist pain or abdominal discomfort is a common symptom appeared in the early stage of PKD. If patients have family history, they should pay enough attention on this sign.
Secondly, proteinuria can occur with cysts growing and increasing. When cysts are small, they do not compress kidney obviously and proteinuria do not happen at this moment. However, when cysts grow to a certain degree, they will compress kidney seriously and begin to cause injury to kidney, affecting glomerular filtrating function. Then proteinuria happens.
Thirdly, Haematuria will appear if cysts grow to some degree and cyst rupture happens. This symptom can be considered as an important factor for patients to find this disease.
Fourthly, abdominal lumps can be touched when cysts keep growing and increasing. This is because growing and increasing cysts can enlarge kidney size. When kidney size increases to some degree, abdominal lumps can be touched.
Besides, frequent urination, urgent urination or nocturnal urination can also be found in early stage with light degree. Patients who have a family history of PKD should pay high attention on these symptoms, which is really helpful to make an early diagnosis about this dsiease. The earlier this disease is found, the better therapeutic effect can be get. if you need any help, please consult us online or email to kidney-treatment@hotmail.com.

Will PKD Affect the Eyesight
Will PKD affect the eyesight? Though there are some PKD patients lose their
sights, these cases are not very common and all PKD patients won't lose their
sights. As we all know, PKD is a type of genetic disease. If it can't be
controlled well, it will develop to uremia, and only a part of patients go
blind. Besides, this symptom only occurs during the period of Uremia. So
patients don't have to worry it. Just PKD is found and treated early and in
time, this disease won't affect the eyesight of patients.
The main causes for that PKD can affect eyesight are: the accumulated uremia toxin in human body can impair optic nerves, and hypertension can cause the ocular fundus arteriosclerosis and the decrease of retinal blood. Then how can we prevent the influence of PKD on eysight?
First, PKD patients must correct the impairment on optic nerves, and prevent from the aggravation of this disease and losing sight: at the beginning of treatment, they should control the haemorrhage effectively, replenish the blood flow volume, control blood pressure and take timely and regular dialyses. These measures contribute to the correction of optic nerves impairment of Uremia patients.
Second, as for PKD found in early or middle stage, patients should adopt proper treatments according to their symptoms: the continuous enlargement of cysts will cause the progressive enlargement of kidneys, the decrease of renal excretory function and further cause the accumulation of toxin in the patients' body, which will lead to the increase of Scr, the retention of metabolin, the unbalance of water and electrolyte. All of these will impair human body seriously.
At last, experts remind that uremia patients caused by PKD had better adopt traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. The enlargement of cysts can be controlled by expanding blood vessels surrounding the cysts, accelerating the blood circulation of cyst wall and restraining the distribution of cyst wall epithelial cells.

Daily Nursing Interventions of PKD
No matter during the treatment period or the convalescence, patients should
pay attention to personal health-care and nursing interventions. For health-care
and nursing intervention are related to the prognosis conditions directly.
During the scorching summer, what should the PKD patients pay attention to?
First, nursing intervention of skin: it is very important for patients to prevent skin infection, decubitus and other related complications in summer. For the decrease of renal function, toxin will accumulate in human body, which can stimulate skin. Patients usually are accompanied with skin itching and the problem of insomnia. Once the skin is scrathed, it is easily infected. So patients should often clean skin with warm water to keep it clean, but soap and alchhol are prohibited.
Second,reasonable diets: as for diets, patients should adopt reasonable diets according to the illness condition and under the doctors directions. For example, as for patients with renal insufficiency, they should take in food containing high-calorie and high-quality protein, and restrain the amount of water to maintain the balance of water in human body.
Third, nursing intervention of buccal: keep your mouth clean in morning and evening and after meals. Besides, patients should also remove bad breath, reduce sickness and avoid bacteria and mycetes.
Forth, guarantee a good rest of both mind and body: as for patients with hypertension caused by kidney disease, they should measure their blood pressure regularly and increase resting time according to blood pressure.
Hope these nursing interventions are helpful for PKD patients and their family members. The key points of PKD treatment are blocking the process of renal fibrosis, repairing the damaged renal inherent cells and protecting renal function from further damage. Just the enlargement of cysts can be controlled, patients with PKD completely can lead a normal life.
