Being a pet parent is one of the coolest things a human can do... that's why we call them man's best friend. But our canine companions can also come down with an array of health-related difficulties; including canine kidney disease. In order to combat this potentially fatal disease, there are a few precautions you can take to prevent and help treat kidney complications.
A normal blood pressure for most adults is less than 120/80 millimeters of mercury. If blood pressure is at or above 140/90 millimeters of mercury, this is a serious health problem especially for people with diabetes or Nephrology (Kidney Disease). Only your doctor can recommend what treatment or medications are right for you.
By sticking to this diet, you will begin to feel healthier and have fewer symptoms from your kidney disease, and you will eventually let the healing begin within the organ. Most people who go on this diet notice a difference within a few weeks.
Creatinine 4.3 is close to the range that needs dialysis. However, how long you can avoid dialysis depends on your own conditions. Normally, the earlier you take measure to improve kidney function, the longer time you will spend before dialysis. Even in successful cases, many patients with high creatinine level avoid the dialysis in their lifetime.
It is undeniable that having a kidney disease from kidney stones to chronic renal disease is expensive. You are fortunate if your health care provider covers nephrology treatments. My husband (boyfriend back then) and I decided to move to a metropolitan city to look for better paying jobs and earn enough to pay for our parents' treatments for kidney problems. However, as they say, there is always a reason for everything. Having both fathers undergoing dialysis is probably a sign from the heavens that we are meant for each other! We found good paying jobs, got married, found great friends and started our new family in this new city away from home.
