What Is The Deal Of Anemia In Diabetic Nephropathy

A:

This is Dr Emily from kidney disease hospital located in China. We had a conversation about your mom’s kidney disease on our website. You said she had diabetes about 10 years, so I guess the primary cause of her kidney problem is diabetes. Diabetes is a leading factor of kidney disease. And when kidneys are damaged, excessive creatinine will not be removed from the body effectively and fully. In this condition, creatinine will pile up in your body, causing high creatinine level. This is the reason why your mom is diagnosed with high creatinine level. 247umol/l of creatinine level is dangerous as elevated creatinine level does not occur until at least half of kidney function has been damaged.

As for your mom’s anemia, the reason is also damaged kidneys. Normally kidneys make an important hormone called erythropoietin (EPO). Hormones are secretions that your body makes to help your body work and keep you healthy. When you has kidney disease, the kidneys cannot make enough EPO. This causes red blood cell count to drop and anemia to develop. Most people with kidney disease will develop anemia.

Knowing the cause of anemia, the deal should focus on repairing damaged kidneys and improve kidney function. Our therapy is a combination of western medicines and Chinese medicines. In this way, the therapeutic effects will be better. Western medicines aim to control symptoms but fail to treat the root problem of anemia. Chinese medicines show slow effects on alleviating anemia but can treat anemia from the root. Therefore, the combination of western medicines and Chinese medicines does not only alleviate anemia but also solve the root problem. This systematic therapy is Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy which is an external application. Patients just need to lie on the bed to take this therapy. Two medicated bads are put on the patients’ lower back and the active ingredients can come to the injured kidneys directly through your skin. In this way, damaged kidneys can get recovered and renal function can be improved gradually.

When kidney function is improved, anemia will be relieved also. If you have any question or doubt, please leave us a message to kidneycares@hotmail.com or consult our renal experts.
