IgA Nephropathy and Irregular Heartbeat
IgA Nephropathy is one common glomerulonephritis that can cause various symptoms. Even though irregular heartbeat isn’t as common as hematuria, proteinuria and swelling, some patients indeed have this problem. Why do IgA Nephropathy patients have irregular heartbeat? How to manage it?
What causes irregular heartbeat for IgA Nephropathy?
IgA Nephropathy is one immune disorder that can disturb the balance of internal environment. Then, several conditions can cause irregular heartbeat.
1. Abnormal electrolyte levels: When kidneys fail to work, calcium, potassium and sodium balance is more likely to be disturbed. Irregular heartbeat is just one sign of potassium imbalance.
2. Emotional problems: If patients have anxiety, fear or stress, they may heart problems.
3. Some drinks: Some patients drink too much caffeine or alcohol that can also induce irregular heartbeat.
4. Some drugs: This problem may also be a side effect of some drugs.
How to manage irregular heartbeat for IgA Nephropathy patients?
The management methods should depend on the causes. Accordingly, we give out the following suggestions.
1. Try to control your emotion: Talk with your family member or friend, do moderate exercise and learn to regulate your breath, all of which are unable to release your stress and bad mood.
2. Modify your diet plan timely: If your irregular heartbeat is due to abnormal electrolyte balance, controlling the intake of foods with corresponding electrolyte can help ease this problem.
3. Improve kidney function and treat IgA Nephropathy: No matter which is the direct trigger, IgA Nephropathy and low kidney function is the root cause. Therefore, some treatments, such as Immunotherapy, Clear Blood Pollution Therapy and Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, should be taken to stop the progress of IgA Nephropathy.
