Q: My creatinine is 5.1 and my GFR is 9. I am not on dialysis by far. I am
taking low-salt, low-fat and low-potassium diet. I want to know herbs that can
be helpful. Can you provide more information?
A: From your condition, we can see that your GFR is already low, and for most
patients, they may already be in dialysis. I think your good care on food do
help a lot to maintain condition.
In most countries now, the only method for PKD is to wait, until it develops
into kidney failure stage, and then start dialysis, and kidney transplant.
In recent years, we have developed the methods that can help shrink the
cysts, and then reduce the pressure caused by the cysts, so the progress of the
disease can be slowed down, your condition can be maintained, and then get
improvements.
As to any oral medicines may be discharged out from the kidneys, which may
increase the burden of the kidneys, so our hospital has used an external
application of the traditional Chinese medicines, to let the medicines penetrate
into the kidneys directly, and take effects on the cysts.
But before application of the medicines, the doctors need to examine your
body, and then prescribe the medicines suitable for you, so the patients need to
come to China if they want to have this treatment.
That's how we treat PKD patients. And expect Micro-Chinese medicines, for you
are already in kidney failure stage, we suggest Immunotherapy as well, combined
with Chinese medicines, to achieve a better result. If you need any help, please
let me know. Contact mail: kidney-treatment@hotmail.com
