Treatment for ADPKD with High Blood Pressure


Patient: I have ADPKD, 34 years old. My creatinine as of now is 1.4 six months before. I am taking telmisartan for pressure. Can you suggest?
Best Answer
Doctor: It is far from enough if you just take some hypotensors. ADPKD belongs to chronic kidney disease and without effective treatment, it will push us into dialysis and kidney transplant.
High blood pressure is the leading risk factor which can accelerate the progression of ADPKD. Therefore, it is very necessary to control blood pressure into normal range. But, to aovid kidney failure, we also need to receive some treatments to stop ADPKD from progressing.
So far, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is the only treatment which has the ability to stop ADPKD without causing side effects and operation.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is a kind of external treatment. In this treatment, the Chinese herbs are crushed into powder and the purpose of this is to make full use of the active ingredients. These Chinese herbs grow naturally and they shrink cysts in ADPKD through making pressure difference. We know fluids flow toward the side with lower pressrue, so as long as we make the pressure outside the cyst lower than that inside the cyst, cystic fluids ooze out of naturally.
If you are interested in our therapy, you can contact us and we will offer you more deatiled information. Hoping you can recover soon with our joint effort.

Micro Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy Treatment For Enlarged Cysts With PKD


Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease and usually have a family history. And its incidence rate is 50% and the abnormal gene can be passed from generation to generation. With the enlargement of cysts, patient's kidney will become big so your belly will enlarge correspondingly. Patients usually have some common symptoms like high blood pressure, discontinuous hematuria, back pain, fatigue and so on. What symptoms or discomforts does your children have now?
The most dangerous factor for PKD is the enlarged cyst can press normal renal tissue, causing ischemia and anoxia in kidneys. Kidney can fail to work gradually. There is no effective treatment which can remove genetic disease at present. But that is not to say we can do nothing about this disease. Cllinical experience show that as long as we can control the enlargement of cysts, renal function can be protected and patient can lead a normal life in that case. It is proven that the smaller cysts are, the fewer discomforts there is. So early treatment is quite necessary to reduce the discomforts and halt the aggravation of renal function.
What treatment can deal with the enlarged cysts?
Our treatment for PKD includes Miro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, immunotherapy, stem cells transplant, blood purification. Among them, micro-chinese medicine osmotherapy is the basic treatment. This is not an oral medicine but an external osmotherapy. The effective component can penetrate into human body through waist area. Patients can take this treatment just by lying on the bed. As per patient's reaction to the medicine, patients need to take the treatment 2-3 times each day and it takes 45mins per time, patients can feel massaged during the treatment, safe and comfortable ( check the attachment). The mechnism ot the treatment is to dilate blood vessels, restrain the hyperplasia of cystic cells, increase the permeability of cystic cells. By taking this treatment, cysts can stop enlargement and begin to shrink gradually, which can effectively reduce cysts' pressure on kidneys. Consequently, renal function can be protected. Usually, patients can feel improvement within 7-10days in their urine color, appearance and quantity. Their fatigue can also get improved correspondingly. Compared with western surgery, this treatment has low side-effect, and will not impair normal renal tissue. Chinese medicine focus on diagnostic and therapeuti principle, therefore prescriptions are made as per patient's specific condition. And if your renal function does not decline severely, you can just take this therapy, And if your renal function decreases alot, you need also take other therapy to improve your renal function.

How to Prevent Polycystic Kidney Disease


Polycystic Kidney Disease is the condition in which groups of cysts form inside the kidneys. These cysts are round in shape and are full of yellow fluids. Polycystic Kidney Disease is a genetic disease and is divided into two types which are ADPKD and ARPKD. Although Polycystic Kidney Disease is hereditary disease, not all the persons with corresponding gene will suffer from it. There are several ways to prevent the onset of the disease.
Firstly, eating healthy food can be a big step in preventing Polycystic Kidney Disease. In the daily life, intake of fat and salt should be kept at a minimum. Meanwhile, try to replenish enough vitamins which are rich in vegetables and fruits. Besides, whole grains also should be incorporated into the regular diet.
Secondly, keep a healthy body weight through doing physical exercises regularly. Exercise benefits us a lot such as increasing our immunity, strengthening our body and promoting our appetite and so on. According to researches, doing physical exercise for about thirty minutes every day is ok.
Thirdly, observe yourself to know whether you have symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease. Symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease include severe pain in the location of kidneys, elevated blood pressure, and fatigue and blood urine. In serious cases, patients usually have some other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, enlarged stomach and frequent urination at night. If you encounter any of these symptoms, contact a doctor.
Fourthly, go to hospital for examination regularly. Although symptoms are helpful in diagnosing Polycystic Kidney Disease, medical tests help you confirm whether you have Polycystic Kidney Disease or not.
Sixthly, for some people with Polycystic Kidney Disease, they may also suffer from kidney stone, so taking steps to prevent the production of kidney stone is also necessary.
Seventy, if you are a smoker and found of drinking alcohol, try to kick these bad habits as they can promote the occurrence of Polycystic Kidney Disease.
To prevent Polycystic Kidney Disease, you need to pay much more attention to many aspects and only in this way, can your risk of suffering from this disease be lowered effectively.

Polycystic Kidney Disease Diet


Food for people with polycystic kidney disease, it is important for those with high blood pressure to eat a diet low in salt. A low-fat, moderate calorie diet is also important. Research studies on diet have shown promising results for mice and rats with polycystic kidney disease; however, none of these diet changes have been shown to be beneficial in humans.
High-potassium foods such as acorn squash, potatoes, tomatoes, broccoli, orange juice, lentils and other legumes must be eaten very sparingly. Healthier choices include mushrooms, onions and green peppers because these are low-potassium foods.
Try to eat a lot of high-fiber foods that can combat insulin resistance -- high insulin levels have been linked with heart disease and faster rates of PKD progression. Good sources of fiber, in addition to fruit and vegetables, are whole grains and legumes.
Avoid excess amounts of salt, which causes your blood pressure to rise. This includes products like processed foods, soups, chips and soy sauce.
PKD patients should drink lots of water since water helps flush out waste products and helps you avoid dehydration, a common symptom of PKD. Avoid caffeine -- which causes dehydration -- found in coffee, chocolate, black tea, green tea, white tea, cola and even some decaf products.

How To Cure Polycystic Kidney Disease


Polycystic kidney disease is an inherited disorder in which many masses or cysts form in the kidney, eventually replacing normal kidney tissue. The disease can also cause cysts to form in the liver. Polycystic kidney disease isn't curable, but treatments can reduce symptoms and improve the patient's quality of life. Read on to learn more about how to treat polycystic kidney disease.
Chinese medicine has a history of thousands of years. There are many kinds of performance forms of Chinese medicine. There is decoction made by boiling the medical herbs and saving the juice, and there is powder by grinding the herbs and there is also pills, mastic, vina, troche, electuary, injection etc. We use a new processing method to make the powder more refined and easier to be absorbed, so it is called micronization .
How does Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy treatment polycystic kidney disease ?
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has following functions:
1) Through promoting the permeability of cyst wall, cyst liquid will be reabsorbed into blood vessels, then will be discharged out of body along urine , so cysts will shrink gradually. And it also can restrain the secretion of cyst wall epithelial cell, so prevent cysts from growing again.
2) Through dilating the renal blood vessels, more nutrients in blood will be transferred into kidney lesions, so kidneys will get more nutrients.
3) Through degrading the extracellular matrix, the internal environment of ischemia and hypoxia in the kidneys will be improved, and the perfusion flow of the blood to the kidneys will be increased, so the filtered ability of the kidneys will be improved.

How To Prevent PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease) Develop into Renal Failure


Will PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease) develop into Renal Failure? This is a question many patients who have been diagnosed with PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease)often ask and they are really concerned with the development of PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease). As we know, PKD is a kind of genetic disease, which means that there are many cysts in kidney. In the cysts, there is liquid which is isolated with the outside.
Will PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease) develop into Renal Failure? The answer is absolutely. If PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)can not be controlled well, cysts will press renal units day by day. And then, when the renal units are damaged by 50%, renal insufficiency will take place. With the increasing of damaged renal units, kidney can not work as well as before, and Uremia may even take place. This process is called renal fibrosis.
So how to prevent PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)from developing into Renal Failure? Effective measures can make it.
In western countries, doctors often apply puncture or operation, which can only eliminate cysts for a while and can not treat it fundamentally. In addition, patients with PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)may easily get infection. So more and more patients are seeking for a better treatment, which can treat PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)thoroughly and has no side effect.
Now this dream has come true. After more than 20 years’ trial and error, experts in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital researched out a brand new therapy based on traditional Chinese medicine: Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy.
Three processes how Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy go as follows:
Firstly, invigorate the circulation of blood. By extending renal arteries, the groundwater increment of blood will increase, micro-circulation in the body can be improved. In this way, the permeability of cyst wall will increase, the reabsorption of sac liquid will be increase, which can shrink the cysts.
Secondly, clear away the stasis and immune complex. Degrade the fibrosis and the deterioration chain which is caused by renal fibrosis.
Thirdly, repair the damaged intrinsic cells and rebuild normal renal function.
After these three steps, cysts will shrink and PKD(Polycystic Kidney Disease)will surely not develop into Renal Failure.

Stage and Treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease


The Stage and Treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease
How to control and treat Polycystic Kidney Disease? Polycystic Kidney is a kind of hereditary kidney disease which is attributed to autosomal dominant inheritance as a kind of progressive genetic kidney disease. There are some rules in the paroxysm and development of this disease. Most patients do not suffer from the disease until they grow up, and some patients may have Liver Multiple Cyst and Calculus at the same time. The notable character of the disease is abnormal growth of Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells. The Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells would have secreting function when the phenotype of them turns into Cyst Epithelial Cells. Because the cells secrete more and more liquid without normal excretion pathway as the growth of the age, lots of Cyst Fluid is accumulated there. And this results in the enlargement of the cysts, the rise of the pressure in the cysts and the increase of surface tension of it. At this time some sensitive patients would have lumbar unwell and feel sore and bursting. And when part of the cysts is infected, patients would be painful. By the gradual increase of the cysts, the normal structure of the kidney would be replaced, and the function of the kidney begin to decline gradually, which results in Hypertension and abnormal result in test of Urine Routine and renal function.
There are some rules in each Polycystic Kidney Disease stage:
A. Emergence period: the disease is a kind of hereditary disease, and patients always have the cysts inborn which are just too small to be checked out at early stage and it is generally difficult to check out the cysts before the 20s of the patient. If there are the cases of Polycystic Kidney Disease in their family, people should take the examination as early as possible to observe the growth state of the cysts. And they need to take good care of their body.
B. Growth stage: There would be a rapid growth of the cysts when the patient are at the age of 30s to 40s. And we call this period as the growth stage medically. It should be given close observation in growth period. But Western doctors have no method of treatment in this period and they believe the treatment is unnecessary, so what they do is just to conduct symptomatic treatment such as Hypertension and so on, which is quite passive. Patients should positively conduct treatment in this period to stop or slow the cysts’ growth rate by applying the Chinese medicine with the stronger effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. And this would meet the purpose to extend the lifetime of the patients. We believe the period is the critical period to slow the growth rate of the cysts by using the Chinese medicine with the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
C. The swelling period: the cysts would further grow and swell when the patient is in his 40s. In this period the cysts is more than 4cm in size and begin to break up. We call this period as the swelling period. By the enlargement of the cysts, there would be more clinical symptoms such as backache, albuminuria, blood urine, and the increase of blood pressure. We should observe closely in this period. And this period is also the critical period for treament combined with traditional Chinese and western medicine. We could use Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis and discharge the toxin of the body, in essence we protect the renal function by getting rid of the cysts liquid which is harmful to the renal function. So the swelling period of Polycystic Kidney is the critical time for the protection of renal function through combined treatment of traditional Chinese medicine and western.
D. The broken up period: If the cysts continue growing, it would break due to some external causes. Once the cysts are broken, patients must go to hospital for treatment immediately to restrain the infection positively in case of the emerging of Ichorrhemia or the acute deterioration of renal function. And this would be beneficial to the dispose appropriately.
F. Uremia period: we conduct treatment specially aiming at Uremia to protect the renal function. The Peritoneal Dialysis and Hemodialysis is necessary in later period.
Polycystic Kidney is a kind of hereditary disease and it is impossible to avoid, so the disease can only be restrained in the early stage of those period. Many patients show great fear to dialysis and think the Chinese medicine cannot cure the disease completely. The Western medicine is just to cure the symptoms but not the disease, which gives the patients endless despair. Indeed we should confront a disease with an easy, for the less burden you suffer, the more hope you will have!

Is Coffee Bad for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)


Is Coffee Bad for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)
Coffee is helpful for us to keep conscious while we feel tired after several works. However, can people with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) drink coffee?
Coffee may accelerate the progression of Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Coffee can release stress hormone like epinephrine and cortisol, which are helpful in relieving pressure and supplying energy. However, drinking too much coffee will cause the rapid increase of these two substances, and thus result in Kidney Failure. For sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease, drinking too much of coffee will accelerate the progression of kidney damages, and eventually cause Kidney Failure.
In addition, most of sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease have elevated blood pressure. As drinking too much coffee will aggravate high blood pressure symptom, and according to the studies, one glass of coffee will make the elevated blood pressure last for twelve hours, so from this aspect, Polycystic Kidney Disease should avoid drinking too much coffee.
Moreover, drinking too much of coffee will induce osteoporosis. Caffeine has strong ability in promoting the generation of urine, so long-term drinking of coffee will make large amounts of calcium lose from our body, leading to the easy occurrence of osteoporosis. For people with Polycystic Kidney Disease, due to the pathological changes in their kidneys, they are easily to catch osteoporosis and drinking too much coffee will make them get osteoporosis easier. Therefore, sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease should avoid drinking too much coffee in their daily life.
Drinking too much coffee is harmful for the health of Polycystic Kidney Disease sufferers.
Coffee contains large amounts of caffeine. Ingesting too much of caffeine will cause caffeinism which include a series of abnormal psychoreaction and physical responces, such as nervosity, anxiety, jerk, insomnia and cardiopalmus.
Right amount of coffee can help to relieve fatigue, so in daily life, sufferers with Polycystic Kidney Disease can drink some coffee. However, for the sake of health, they should avoid drinking too much coffee.

Treating PKD with Chinese Traditional Medicines


Polycystic kidney disease early detection and early treatment, the cyst will continue to increase with time, not only the kidney capsule by the stretch on the back discomfort, and cyst compression of normal renal structure, affect renal function or even the development of uremia. For the treatment of polycystic kidney disease are generally three ways: 1, Western puncture fluid curing surgery, but reduce the original cyst surrounding pressure in the postoperative, small cysts rapidly increased; 2, Western decortication surgery, with traumatic, also make a small cyst increases;, Chinese medical disease outside the rule of conservative treatment, there is no risk, you can gradually make the cyst back to the absorption, suppression and repair the abnormal growth of the tubule cells and their fibrous secretions
Chinese medicine treatment of polycystic kidney disease What kind of medicine? View of the drawbacks of traditional Chinese medicine treatment of renal cysts, the medical profession has developed a new type of Chinese medicine treatment methods - micro-based infiltration therapy of Chinese medicine, Chinese herbal medicine through the micro-processing, medicinal components overflow fuller, more robust efficacy, and clinical validation. More importantly, the micro-based medicine penetration not oral therapy, but with drug penetration instrument issued by an electrical impulse promote penetration administration in the patient's lumbar region, for the treatment of a long cycle of polycystic kidney disease patients, may be exempted from long-term oral medicine, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting and other gastrointestinal symptoms.
General in the cyst but also affect renal function, the doctor will recommend treatment of patients with, TCM conservative treatment in the cyst is still small when, but not like the patients thought it was brewed Chinese medicine or taking a lot of pills to treatment! instead of using the newly developed micro-based medicine penetrate therapy to treat micro-treatment of Chinese medicine through the skin penetration wall of blood vessels to dilate, to accelerate local blood circulation, quickly taken away by the cystic fluid at the same time, reduce capsule pressure, inhibition of cyst epithelial cells continue to secrete, to reduce the cyst fluid generation, so that the cyst continuous retraction, can effectively prevent cyst increases, reducing the damage of intrinsic renal cells for therapeutic purposes.

Which Is the Best Therapy for Polycystic Kidney Disease?

The treatment of polycystic kidney disease: cyst decortication: surgery alleviate the oppression of the cysts of the renal parenchyma, the protection of the squeezed most of the remaining renal unit from further damage, renal ischemia situation has improved, some renal units have been restored, delaying the development of the disease. The key to successful operation as early as possible to surgery, cyst decompression must be thorough, do not give up a small cyst and deep cyst decompression. Bilateral should be surgery, bilateral surgery time interval of more than six months. Advanced cases, such as existing renal dysfunction in azotemia, uremia, whether or not associated with high blood pressure, decompression therapy is no longer justified, the surgery to combat anti-may aggravate the condition.
The treatment of polycystic kidney disease: traditional Chinese medicine: Chinese medicine in the treatment of renal cysts treated conservatively, the effect is very good. Chinese medicine to the overall concept and diagnosis and treatment, polycystic kidney disease is the result of both external and internal factors, Cascade Diversion, and gradually the cyst liquid discharge to achieve the purpose of the cyst gradually narrow. Chinese medicine also can not overcome the genetic problems, but conservative treatment is Western medicine can not be compared, and the basic non-toxic side effects, no recurrence.
The treatment of polycystic kidney disease: dialysis and transplantation: enter the end-stage renal failure should dialysis treatment, the preferred hemodialysis. Kidney transplant survival rate of the polycystic kidney disease and other causes similar to the performer, but also diseases associated with increased postoperative processing difficulties, affecting transplantation.
The best treatment of polycystic kidney which method? Polycystic kidney disease is a disease with a genetic nature, traditional treatments are only symptomatic treatment, not fundamentally therapy, resulting in a cyst repeatedly grow. Patients with pain. What virtually eliminating cysts, inhibition of the cyst is no longer the growth of it?
Hospital to take a comprehensive treatment measures of integrative medicine, penetration treatment of ionic medicine-based therapy for cyst growth trend, this method is characterized by: (1) to reduce the source of the cyst fluid, cyst epithelial cells inactivated, inhibit the secretion of cystic fluid, the cysts stop growing. (2) increase the excretion of cyst fluid, increasing the permeability of the cyst surface blood circulation, speed up the excretion of cyst fluid, so that the cyst retraction.
TCM holographic genetic intervention therapy active substance to inhibit the continued secretion of the epithelial cells of the cyst wall; prevent the wall of blood vessels and cysts continue enlargement. Above treatment, Chinese medicine the holographic genes intervention therapy of active substances for the treatment of renal cysts has played a significant effect, improve the blood vessel wall and cyst circulatory disturbance state, softened wall, an increase of the external wall of the permeability and the inhibition of capsule the role of the parietal cell secretion. The TCM the holographic genetic intervention therapy from the radically reduce cyst pressure, blocking the progress of renal fibrosis due to cyst oppression led to the treatment of polycystic kidney disease, fundamentally, so that condition no longer recurrent.
