How to Lower Creatinine 2.2 for PKD Patients

Question: My husband has PKD and liver cysts. All tests are within normal range except for creatinine levels. It was 2.2. Please suggest. Thank you.

Answer: Under normal circumstance, creatinine can be passed out of the body in the urine. When kidneys are damaged, creatinine builds up in the body, resulting in high creatinine level. Therefore, creatinine level is often used as the indicator of kidney function. Creatinine level does not increase until less than 50 % kidney function remains. Creatinine 2.2 is a little higher than the normal level (0.6-1.2 mg/dL). Though all tests of your husband are within normal range, there is still severe damage to his kidneys. He may be in stage 3. And the main reason should mainly contribute to the growing cysts. For PKD patients, they should shrink their cysts and improve kidney function. Only in this way can they lead a normal life.

PKD is caused by the renal tubules epithelial cells proliferation and metamorphosis which form the cyst wall. And the liquid in the cyst is original urine and some liquid which is secreted by the cyst wall. To treat the renal cyst effectively, what we should do is to expand blood vessels, speed up blood circulation on cysts walls, and improve the permeability of the cysts. Therefore, the cyst liquid will be reabsorbed and discharged out with blood circulation, thus to make the cysts shrunk and decreased.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is such a therapy. It is to infiltrate the shattered herbs into the damaged kidneys with the help of osmosis device. The active ingredients of Chinese medicine can restrain the proliferation of renal epithelial cells until it stops secreting. When the internal pressure of the cyst declined, the size of the cyst will gradually become smaller, thus relieving the compression of the tissues around, improving microcirculation, and blocking the progressing of renal fibrosis. Besides, the cysts are not easy to recur after disappearance, and the symptoms will thoroughly disappear.

When kidney cysts shrink and kidney function improves, creatinine level decreases. For more information, please contact online doctor or leave a message below.
