Question: I was diagnosed with PKD since I was 34 years old, and now my age is 42 years old. During the period, I had no symptoms with my disease except feeling the enlargement of my cysts. But recently, I had my blood test, my doctor told me my BUN level is 33, Creatinine level is 2.33, what does this mean for me? What should I do in this condition?

Answer: From your description, I get the illness condition of you, you said you have PKD, which has been diagnosed for 8 years. As we know, PKD is a genetic kidney disease, and people will be born with this polycystic gene. For PKD patients, their are numerous kidney cysts on kidneys, and the kidney cysts will be gradually increased and get enlarged, which will oppress the surrounding kidney tissues and finally cause kidney failure.

You said your BUN is 33 (normal level 9-20) and creatinine level is 2.33 (normal level 0.5-1.2), both of the levels are higher than the normal level. BUN is the waste product of protein metabolism, and creatinine is the waste product of muscle metabolism, they are mainly excreted by kidneys. When the kidneys are damaged severely, or there are less than 50% kidney function, the BUN and creatinine levels will be higher than the normal level. So high BUN and high creatinine levels are often regarded as the indicators of severe kidney damage. Since your levels are both higher, which means the enlargement of kidney cysts have been caused kidney damage, so you need to have early and effective treatment to stop the progression of kidney failure.

In order to reduce the high levels, we need to have effective treatment to shrink the kidney cysts and repair the kidney damage, then the high levels can be reduced from root. Here I recommend you to take Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, which uses traditional Chinese herbs, and the effective substances in kidneys can help shrink the kidney cysts and prevent the continue increase of kidney cysts. In addition, this therapy can also help repair the kidney damage and improve the kidney function. Through the systemic treatment, the kidney function can be improved effectively, and the high BUN and high creatinine level can also be reduced fundamentally.
