High Creatinine And High Blood Glucose

Diabetes is characterized by high blood glucose and patients often find that their creatinine in blood is also elevated after years diabetes. High creatinine means that kidney functions are affected and high blood glucose is the most possible cause of kidney damages and high creatinine levels.

Though there may be other causes of high creatinine such as dehydration, urinary tract infection, diets or drugs, high blood glucose has certain impact on creatinine level in the blood.

Long term glucose in the blood will damage blood capillaries in the kidneys and hinder blood circulation so that renal functional cells can not get enough supply of blood, oxygen and other necessary nutritions. Long term ischemia and hypoxia will cause these functional cells to be damaged and lose their proper functions. As a result, metabolic wastes and toxins such as creatinine, urea, uric acid can not be excreted properly or efficiently from the kidneys and blood.

Control high blood glucose through diets and drugs. It is often the first step to first bring high blood sugar well under control to prevent further damages to the kidneys and protect residual kidney functions. Have regular check of your blood sugar before and after meals and make a well-planed diet and treatment plan under the doctor and dietitian’s guidance and help.

High blood glucose is often accompanied by high blood pressure which will further elevate creatinine level, therefore it is very important to have early prevention and early treatment if high blood pressure occurs.

Sometimes even when high glucose is controlled, high creatinine can not be lowered. This is because renal damages have been caused and renal functions have been affected, therefore patients need to seek effective treatment to repair damaged renal tissues early before it becomes irreversible. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can help lower high blood pressure, high blood sugar and high serum creatinine level. And since it can repair damaged renal functional cells, the relapse rate is much lowered.
