Question: My mother is suffering from Kidney Failure and now she is on dialysis. Her current creatinine level is between 7 and 9, and sometimes it decreased to 4.5. She is taking lasix medicine for urine output. Is there a treatment to stop dialysis?
Answer: Please, don’t worry. From your description, I believe there is other treatment option to save your mother. The reason is that you said your mother is taking lasix to increase her urine output. This means she still has certain amount of urine output. Otherwise, diuretics will worsen her illness condition rather than improving her condition. In this case, some treatments can help increase glomerular filtration rate and lower high creatinine level effectively.
Firstly, Blood Purification methods are suggested. Compared with dialysis, it can cleanse the blood and internal environment more thoroughly. Therefore, harmful substances will have no chance to cause further kidney damage.
Secondly, some traditional Chinese medicines can be taken. Some Chinese medicines have the effect of activating damaged cells and nourishing blood. Therefore, you can have a further talk with doctor online to determine which medicines are helpful for your mother.
Finally, make sure your diet plan and lifestyle modified with your mother’s condition. Even though diet plan and lifestyle is unable to cure kidney failure, they indeed can help strengthen the therapeutic effects of the above medical treatments. Hopefully, your mother can get better sooner.
