HOW TO REDUCE S.UREA & S. CREATININE?
Dear friend, welcome and thanks for entrusting your query here at HCM!
I am Dr. Prasad Akole (Critical Care Expert- http://bit.ly/Dr-Prasad-Akole) and am glad to address to your query here.
I have reviewed all your reports and history.e
Has the creatinine raised of late than before?
What was it before?
How often is the sugar level low? Was insulin stopped/ decreased after that?
In his case loss of consciousness could be due to low sugar levels (usually <60mg%) or atypical fits.
But a normal EEG makes it less likely, though not impossible.
Low sugars are because of worsening kidney function and increased creatinine.
Was potassium checked and raised? Was he breathless?
As neurologist has seen and not advised dialysis, it is less likely as also a cardiology consult ruling out abnormal heart rhythms.
He needs to have a meticulous watch on sugars and any abnormal movements/ convulsions. He may need a dialysis soon if renal function continues to worsen.
Has urinary infection been ruled out?
If unconsciousness recurs, neurology consult and holter monitoring for heart is advised.
Strict renal diet, regular follow up, strict medicine intake is mandatory.
Hope he recovers soon with stringent control. He has many complicating conditions together.
I hope you are fully satisfied with the guidance I gave.
I would be glad to answer any further queries.
Thank you and Good luck!

Thanks for the info.
Please do not worry. All drugs are OK and there are no indications of immediate dialysis. BP medicines may have to be hiked up. Keep a watch on the urine output. With deteriorating kidney function, dialysis becomes imminent sooner or later. Only that can control creatinine rise, if there is no other cause like infection, improper diet etc.
Is he on a dietitian prescribed renal diet? Worsening sugars can be due to renal worsening or any UTI (infections) etc. Keep a close watch and follow up.
Hope this helps.
Would be glad to answer any more queries, if any. Am off for about 10 hours to go to the iCU.
If you are satisfied fully, please rate the answer before you close the query.

The leg pain is mostly due to the peripheral vascular disease, causing less blood supply to the leg and ischaemic pain. Not much can be done for it. He may take simple pain killers, try pregabalin. For the prescription please do take a vascular surgeon's opinion.
Diabetic nephropathy can contribute. Vomiting can be due to uraemia (renal failure associated gastritis etc.) Any tertiary care ICU should be able to handle such case.
You can check the following link to the doctors in odisha. WWW.WWWW.WW
Hope I have answered all your questions. Please ask for any clarifications before closing and rating this answer.
Thank you.
