● The severity of renal cysts, symptoms and complication. Whether patients have stepped in renal failure. How mach renal function is left. All of these are the basis for therapists to make a proper prescription of PKD.

High Creatinine Level 5


What does creatinine level 5 indicate?

Creatinine is formed as the end-product of creatine metabolism and is filtered through the kidney. This is why creatinine level is a measure to reflect kidney functions.

Creatinine level 5 is a pretty high dangerous level, which means that much byproducts and wastes build up in the body. Normally, creatinine levels 5 means patients have stepped into CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) Stage 3.

In Stage 3 CKD, the patient has kidney damage with a moderate decrease in the GFR of 30-59 ml/min. As kidney function declines waste products can build up in the blood causing a condition known as “uremia.” In this stage, the person may experience complications of kidney disease, such as high blood pressure, anemia and some symptoms may show, including fatigue, frequency urination, kidney pain and sleep problems.

Do I need dialysis with creatinine level 5?

5 is quite a high creatinine level and patient may need to take dialysis later on. however, whether the patient will start dialysis or not is based on the whole assessment of his or her other blood values, such as raised urea and potassium levels and the symptoms are severe or not.

If the patient feels sick, irritable, unable to eat and shortness of breath etc, he/she is expected to take the dialysis.

What are the recommended treatments?

Talk with your doctor whether dialysis is necessary, for such a treatment can help remove many toxins from the body right away.

If patient suffers from severe complications, such as high blood pressure or anemia, modern drugs need to be added, for it can restrict the rapid progression of complications.

Chinese herbal medicine should be suggested for it can alleviate the underlying kidney disease and improve renal functions. In this way, creatinine levels can be reduced from the root.

Can Ketosteril Control My High Creatinine Level


Ketosteril is an enteral medicinal product indicated for prevention and psychoanalysis in chronic renal insufficiency contained by connection beside a low protein diet. It is usually prescripted for lowering high creatinine levels—a common complication of kidney disease. 
As ketosteril contains fives essential amino acids like: Lys, His, Thr, Trp, Tyr and another five amino acids contained by the form of their hydroxyl. These amino acids meet the need of kidney disease patients, so it is helpful do adjust the disorder of protein and amino acid metabolism. Thereby, sometime, creatinine level can be reduced in a short time.
However, some patients may find that ketosteril can not work in them or just work a while in them, then their creatinine levels come back very soon. Why ketosteril can’t control my high creatinine level?
In fact, creatinine level is the end-product of muscle metabolism which is filtered by kidneys in normal condition. Usually, constant high creatinine level results from the impaired kidneys. So the key to control creatinine level is to improve kidney functions.
Ketosteril can only reduce creatinine and urea nitrogen by adjusting metabolism of protein and amino acids, not by repairing damaged kidney, the cause of high creatinine and urea nitrogen. As long as kidney functions decline, metabolic wastes and other toxins like creatinine, urea nitrogen, will deposit in the body. As a result, high creatinine level will come back or keep in high level constantly.
Ketosteril Can’t Control My High Creatinine Level, What Should I Do?
By far, there is no specific medicine available which can improve kidney functions in western medicine. Luckily, we find a solution in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Some herbs are found to have the property to lower creatinine levels naturally. Meantime, other herbs which can dilate blood vessels, thus dredges the blocked renal capillaries. Therefore, sufficient blood can flow to renal lesion and carry enough oxygen and blood to repair damaged renal parts. Over time, renal function will improve accordingly.
In this way, creatinine which builds up in the body will be filtered out by improved kidneys. Creatinine level will be lowered from the root. If ketosteril doesn’t work in you or you are interested about Chinese herbal medicine, you can mail to kidneyask@hotmail.com

Prolong Dialysis Patients' Life


A good intake of protein. Protein is one of the building blocks of the body, and therefore it is critical to get ample quantities through the diet to re-stock on what has been lost to allow the body to repair itself. This is usually a joy for dialysis patients as the lead up to dialysis requires heavy dietary protein restriction. Generally, for patients on hemodialysis, 1.2 to 1.5 grams per kilo of body weight is enough; for patients on peritoneal dialysis, 1.2 to 2.2 grams per kilo of body weight is recommended.

Recommended nutrients. Some nutrients are proved to be helpful in prolonging life-span and life quality of patients on dialysis. Iron is suggested for its treatment on anemia and low hemoglobin levels. Multivitamin and mineral supplements contribute to all-side improvement of body health. Magnesium can strengthen cardiovascular health and alleviate symptoms of renal failure, such as high blood sugar, fatigue, headache etc.

Herbal medicine. Herbs are also good choice to improve dialysis life quality and prolong life expectancy. Some herbs have the property of improve renal functions, which helps alleviate underlying kidney disease. Some other herbs contain the substances which treat some complications of renal failure naturally. Herbs help improve dialysis life expectancy include hawthorn, olive leaf, dandelion, ginseng etc.


Optimize your dialysis frequency. Some patients are afraid that they will depend on dialysis in the rest of life, so they usually reduce their dialysis frequency. In fact, you should optimize your dialysis with your doctors. Inadequate dialysis will keep toxins remain in your body while increased frequency of dialysis will burden your weak health. Both of them will shorten your dialysis lifespan.

Most people on dialysis want their doctors to predict their lifespan, when they begin the dialysis. However, how long you will live totally depends on yourself. If you choose a healthy management for dialysis (healthy diet, proper exercise, herbs support etc), surely you will have a longer life expectancy than these who don’t. Some people do live a longer life than doctor predicts, but it does with reasons. If you need more help, you can mail to kidneyask@hotmail.com for further guideline.

Lifespan of Kidney Disease Patient After Dialysis



Dialysis expectancy, like anything in the world depends on many variables, some of which you can not control: age, genes, gender, race etc, and others you can: daily care, treatment, helpful emotion etc.

Thereby, we only can provide some rough states for your reference.

The average lifetime of dialysis a 4.25years and the 10 year kidney dialysis lifespan is 23%.

The luckiest ones who are on dialysis live for about 20 years with this kidney replacement method.

As it goes that “if you live like no one else, you will live like no one else”, so I think why average people live with dialysis for the average lifespan (4.25years) is that the live choose the average treatment, average lifestyle and average emotion management. They choose “average” in front of the factors (related to their dialysis lifespan) that they can control. You choose to do “average” things, so you get average result.

If you do better in choosing treatment, lifestyle and mood control, surely you will get a better result, that is, you will become one of the best luckiest ones.

In a word, you will no get a right answer about the question of how long you will live with dialysis, no matter how many times you get bogged down with all the statistics. Actually, you are the only who can decide how long your dialysis expectancy will be. Ask yourself to do the best job in the following requirement and you will be the luckiest to live the longest lifespan with dialysis.

Talk to your doctors what kind of food should in your diet plan and what should not and follow your diet strictly.

Take conjunctive treatment instead of dialysis alone. Add the treatment which can improve your kidney functions instead of only delaying kidney aggravations into your dialysis treatment.

Optimize your mood management. Don’t care too much about the “average” lifespan of dialysis. Encourage yourself and tell yourself as follows: as long as I do my best in diet, conjunctive treatment and other health care, surely I will be the luckiest one to live the longest dialysis lifespan.

Therefore, do not spend your energy to worry when you may die. Try to spend your energy to take action to help yourself live longer with dialysis. If you need more help, please mail to kidneyask@hotmail.com
