Fatigue And Vertigo Caused By PKD

Many PKD patients complain about fatigue and vertigo and this often means that they have developed renal hypertension and renal anemia and often their kidney functions are affected.

PKD, high blood pressure and vertigo

High blood pressure is very common among PKD patients even in the early stage when their renal functions are still normal. Persistent high blood pressure often cause headache, dizziness and vertigo. In the early stage, proper adjustments in diets and lifestyles such as low-salt, low-fat diets, avoiding alcohol and smoking, some mild exercises, etc. If high blood pressure can not be controlled, drugs and medications will be necessary including ACEI, ARB, diuretics, etc. If high blood pressure becomes too serious and it is can not be controlled with medicines, surgeries usually will be considered.

In the later stage of PKD, nearly all patients will develop high blood pressure which will in turn worsen renal damages and speed up the decline rate of kidney functions. Headache and vertigo will become more obvious and worse. Therefore early and effective treatments should be sought.

PKD, anemia and fatigue

PKD can cause loss of kidney functions and the impaired kidneys can not produce enough erythropoietin and patients often develop low red blood cell count and the symptoms of anemia such as weakness, fatigue, cold feeling, etc. Declined renal filtration ability often cause high toxins and wastes in the patient’s blood which will cause damage to red blood cells and shorten the life span of the red blood cells and worsen anemia.

Blood purification technologies can help purify the blood and ease high toxins in the blood. As for the anemia, patients can have some proper diets, medications or EPO to improve their red blood cell count.

Of cause, only if these renal cysts are treated can vertigo, fatigue, high blood pressure, anemia and other symptoms are relieved from the very root. Osmosis therapy of Chinese medicines have been widely used in China to treat PKD patients and it has been proved to be natural and effective.
