The causes of vomiting in FSGS
The onset of FSGS may be due to many disorders, but the direct cause is more likely to be immune disorder. When immune system can’t work normally, immune complexes will form and build up in various organs via blood circulation. When immune complexes build up in kidneys, it will induce inflammatory reactions within kidneys, resulting in kidney scarring gradually. During the progression of FSGS, the following conditions will induce nausea and vomiting.
- Electrolyte imbalance or metabolic acidosis: Damaged kidneys can’t keep the electrolyte and acid-base balance effectively. This is one common cause of nausea and vomiting.
- Build up of waste products and toxins: With the decline of kidney function, a lot of metabolic wastes and toxins will build up in the blood, triggering vomiting.
- Side effects of some medications: To reduce proteinuria and slow down the progression of FSGS kidney disease, patients may be suggested to take steroids and immunosuppressive agents. Vomiting is just one common side effect of these medicines.
