My mother has kidney cyst problem what should we do?
Female | 60
Kidney cysts are comparable to tiny fluid-filled balloons that develop on the kidneys. They are widespread, notably as we grow old. Individuals with kidney cysts display no symptoms and require no treatment. However, if the cysts are painful, infectious, or result in hypertension, your mother needs an experienced nephrologist. In cases where the cysts are problematic, a physician may propose them to be drained off sometimes even surgery might be necessary depending on certain conditions.

Hello (apologies for long post) Caucasian, Male, 60, 6'0", 260 lbs. Meds: Lisinopril 40 mg, Metoprolol 50 mg x2 a day, Amlodipine 10 mg, Furosemide 20 mg, Glimepiride 1 mg, Janumet 50-1000 x 2, Atorvastatin 10 mg...NO drink/smoke or rec. drugs. Issue: After a lot of work, have lost 40+ lbs in last 5-6 years...blood pressure 130/85, A1c 7.0 ...here is the issue. In March of 2023, after years of my GFR staying constant in mid/upper 40's, (not great, but consistent), it was lower at 41. Dr wanted to check it again in 1 month. I very strictly controlled my diet/sugar/protein/soda/increase water intake, etc...take meds religiously...GFR dropped to 35. Dr sent me to a nephrologist, but before the scheduled appointment (which was 6 weeks later), he took me off of Triamterene...said it can be hard on kidneys. When the nephrologist sent me for labs, GFR went UP to 50. Another test 2 weeks later and GFR went up to 55. Nephrologist says that removing Triamterene from regimen played NO part in GFR rising...put me on Spironolactone due to edema returning . 6 months later at next check-up, all numbers and BP continue to be good, but GFR back down to 40. Is it possible that the diuretics have been hard on my kidneys and causing the lower GFR. I understand with years of HBP/diabetes, the GFR is not ideal, but I'd like to keep it in the 50's if possible. Family doctor took me off the Spironolactone and put me on Lasix in March of 2024...bloodwork coming up in a couple of weeks. Family doctor seems to think the diuretics have contributed to lower GFR...Nephrologist says they have nothing to do with my fluctuating GFR numbers... seeking input from anyone here with knowledge/experience...appreciate any insights re: affect of diuretics on GFR...alternatives to traditional diuretics, etc. I've read loop diuretics like Lasix best for kidney issues.

Diuretics such as Triamterene may have been responsible for your kidney problems, which in turn may have resulted in the increase or decrease of your GFR. The switch from you to Lasix by your family doctor is a good decision as it is a diuretic that may be less harsh on the kidneys. Continue to collaborate with a nephrologist to discover the optimal treatment for you.

The normal sized irregularly outlined left kidney is visualized in its normal anatomical position inhomogeneous radiotracer uptake , cortical damage is noticed along its upper margin and lower poles Morphologyicall normal, fair functioning right kidney Normal sized reduced functioning left kidney with evidence of cortical damage along its upper and lower margin

The test report shows that your right kidney is good. But the left kidney has a bit of trouble. Some damage is there in the outer part of the left kidney. You may not have any problems right now. But you should look for pain or change in urine. To help your left kidney, you should drink lots of water. You should also talk to a nephrologist for more advice soon.

Şu anda 20 yaşındayım yeni biyopsi oldum sonucuma bakarmısınızIKLAMA: 7yaşında nefrotik sendrom tanısı alan ve tedavi gören olgu, albumin düşüklüğü sebebi ile biyopsi alınma kliniği bildirilen olguya ait HE detayda, 20 adet glomerül izlenmiş olup, 2 glomerülde global skleroz izlenmiştir. Diğer glomerüller irili ufaklı çaplarda olup, Bowman aralıkları açık olarak gözlendi. Glomerüler bazal membranlarda hafif kalınlaşma bazı glomerüllerde mevcuttu. Ancak tüm glomerüllerde mezengial hücre artışı-matriks artışı gibi bulgular izlenmedi.

The biopsy results can be interpreted that you may have some changes in your kidneys. The findings suggest that there is a thickening in the walls of some blood vessels and areas of fibrosis. These alterations can be attributed to a condition called xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis. This condition is mostly caused by a severe kidney infection. Proper treatment may involve the use of antibiotics and close monitoring of a nephrologist to manage the condition.

I took albendezol zentle syrup for two times over a period of 15 days without prescription. Does it shows any effect to my kidneys
Male | 20
You need to have the doctor's consent before using albendazole zentle syrup to keep off the danger since its rogue consumption may not be good for your kidneys. Kidneys may show some of these symptoms of damage: swelling, lack of urine production, and fatigue. This is because the drug is inactive in the liver-forming the kidneys. The session is to come off the syrup and undergo a kidney health examination with the help of a nephrologist.
