I'm really worried about my daughter's health. She was born with just one kidney, and even though shes been sticking to strict diet and lifestyle changes, her creatinine levels are still going up. It's now at 2.3. Plus, she's dealing with high blood pressure. Currently, she's on Olmezest 40, Moxovas 0.3, and Folvite. What can we do to help manage her increasing creatinine levels and high BP? Looking for any advice or steps we can take.

Persistent symptoms despite treatment_:
- Inadequate treatment duration: 2 months might not be sufficient to fully address your condition.
- Insufficient medication dosage: Rabeprazole and domperidone dosages might need adjustment.
- Underlying conditions: H. pylori infection, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or other conditions might require alternative treatments.
New symptom: Soreness on the back of the throat:
- Reflux-related symptom: Stomach acid reflux can cause throat irritation.
- Postnasal drip: Mucus accumulation can cause throat soreness.
H. pylori treatment:
- Not untreatable: H. pylori infections can be treated with antibiotics and acid reducers.
- Treatment challenges: Antibiotic resistance, inadequate treatment duration, or insufficient medication dosages can make treatment difficult.

View allI'm a bit concerned about my health lately as my recent blood tests showed a creatinine level of 1.19 and uric acid at 7.4. I'm not sure if these levels are worrisome. Could you please let me know what precautions I should take and where I should get these checked out?
Creatinine level of 1.19 and uric acid level of 7.4 are slightly above the normal range. To help lower your uric acid levels, you can take precautions such as avoiding purine-rich foods like organ meats, anchovies, and alcohol. Additionally, staying hydrated and maintaining a healthy weight can also help. For your creatinine level, it is important to stay hydrated and avoid excessive intake of protein.

I'm really worried about my father. He's 80 and has been having serious kidney problems. He hasn't had proper meals for about 4 months and is just on liquid foods now, so you can imagine how weak he's become. He's also got high blood pressure and issues with his lungs, liver, kidneys, and heart. He's struggling with passing urine and stools as well. We recently did an endoscopy, and the results weren't good at all; there were some abnormalities. His kidney problem has reached a stage 4. The doctors have given him meds like dytor10, isosorbide mononitrate, cardipin, czopressco 2.5, metaproxl 25, idiot 20, omeprazole, and ciploric 100. But he's not eating anything. I'm hoping you could suggest some diet tips or precautions I could take. Would it be okay to give him something like B protein powder or pomegranate juice?
All these are age related issues which lead to current scenario.its not possible to advice without clinical examination ,dont worry you are in right hands,follow your doctors advice

I'm a bit concerned about my recent lab results. I had both an LFT and KFT done, and while my LFT is normal, I'm worried about my creatinine level, which came back at 1.1. The normal range they gave me is between 0.4 to 1.4, so should I be concerned about it being at the higher end? Also, my uric acid level is 7.2, with normal ranges listed as 4.8 to 7.5. I noticed my urine is yellow in the morning, but it seems normal throughout the day as long as I stay hydrated. I had chickenpox last December, but that's all cleared up now. What do you suggest I do about these results? I've attached my KFT and LFT reports for you to take a look.
Based on your results and symptoms, it seems like you may be experiencing mild dehydration, which can affect the color of your urine. It's important to stay hydrated by drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day. To help manage your uric acid levels, you can make dietary changes such as reducing the intake of purine-rich foods like red meat, organ meats, and certain types of seafood. Additionally, you can consider medications like Allopurinol to help lower uric acid levels. For your creatinine levels, it's important to continue monitoring them regularly. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise can help support kidney function. It would be beneficial to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and personalized recommendations based on your medical history and test results.
