Questions & Answers on "Nephrologist" (134)

What type of disease is this symptoms, 1.swollen legs and hands 2.internal joints pain 3.feet and finger pain 4.smelly urine when peeing during swollen legs

Female | 27

Swelling of the legs and hands, painful joints inside your body, and also hurting feet and fingers can be caused by a condition called Rheumatoid Arthritis. The immune system gets confused and starts to attack the joints which are the reasons for the pain and inflammation. Smelly urine during swollen legs might be a sign of kidney problems. Enough water intake and medication are the ways to manage symptoms.

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.

Male | 60

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.

My creatinine is 1.0 still from 2 months

Male | 34

A creatinine level of 1.0 mg/dL is generally considered within a normal range for most adults. It's important to note that several factors can influence these numbers, including hydration, diet, and muscle mass. Symptoms to watch for include fatigue, swelling, or changes in urination. Maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, and monitoring your blood pressure can support kidney health. However, if you experience any unusual symptoms or have concerns, it’s wise to consult a nephrologist. Regular check-ups will help you stay informed and ensure your kidneys are functioning well.

I'm 22 years old female "I got a urine test done and the results showed amber-colored urine with positive turbidity, RBC, WBC, pus, mucus, hemoglobin, ketones, and squamous epithelial cells. I also got a contrast CT KUB done which came out normal, and a urine culture which was also normal. Today, I collected my morning urine in a container and when I touched it with my finger, I felt a white creamy substance. Now, my morning urine is milky and throughout the day, I see tiny bubbles in my urine that disappear quickly. If I drink water, I urinate every 10 minutes, three times, and each time I see tiny bubbles in my urine that form and disappear quickly. I don't have sugar and my urine culture is normal. What's the problem?"

Female | 22

It looks as though your signs may have something to do with some different reasons, like dehydration or what you are eating. Bubbles can indicate space in the urine or low protein levels that usually go with fluids. If it's not the color, but it's the clarity, then the urine looks suspicious. Dark urine, cloudiness, and substances like milk suggest problems with the urinary system. Yay to the clear points from the CT scan and urine culture, but just to be on the safe side, I would advise a follow-up visit to a urologist.

My father is suffering from CKD stage V now my USG report is showing ADPKD MY question is i recently joined gym for my body transformation fat to fit for that goal i have to eat 2 grams per body weight of protein is it good for my kidney also i want to add creatine supplement can i add that supplement

Male | 24

The function of the kidneys worsens when you eat large amounts of protein, and the kidney problems become more severe. The extremely high rates of creatine supplements can make the kidneys unable to function properly. Before you start any regimen, consult with your doctor to figure out the best approach that is right for your body.
