hello,
thank you for writing in to hcm.
chronic kidney disease is a progressive condition.
the problems of accumalation of high concentrations of waste products in the blood as the kidney cannot Filter them can cause problems.
along with blood pressure maintaining medications and cholesterol lowering drugs, even diet control is important. restrict the protein in the diet after consulting the nephrologist to avoid accumalation of excessive levels of periodically of protein metabolism. also fluid intake should neither be less nor to much. usually 1800ml per day is fine. donot take fatty foods.
the serum creatinine levels and blood urea levels need to be maintained to slow down the process of damage.
regards,
dr. riyanka
