High creatinine and cholesterol
Hi guys me again. My last thyroid test results seem to be pretty good but I'd appreciate any feedback about my other test results. My cholesterol was high and also creatinine very high. I did read that this can be linked to Hypo and after medication should return to normal. I've been on 150mcg for about

Creatinine - Potassium
My Creatinine levels fluctuate the past few years. My most recent labs the Creatinine was 1.06 and my Potassium was 5.3. I never had my Potassium elevated. My GFR dropped to 56 from 65. When it was 1.06 in the past my urologist said it was fine and normal. I'm 62 year old female. I had kidney

Pimples on face
Hello. I got my kidney transplant a month ago. There are lots of pimples coming on my face after transplant. I think it because of heavy doses of post transplant medicines. Kindly suggest me the solution for this. Thank you

EGFR varies a lot from one day to the next
Just to relate a recent experience regarding egfr. The purpose is to hopefully reduced a lot of the worry and/or panic many post about when there is a sudden change in their egfr. I am a person with one kidney. A person with one kidney MAY maintain what is classified as a normal egfr. BUT in most

Quality of life on immunosuppressants
The side effects of the immunosuppressants have significantly decreased my quality of life. I felt better in kidney failure before dialysis started than I do now at five months post kidney transplant. I am 49, and I have a healthy diet and I have been pushing myself to get 30-40 minutes of cardiovascular

Third COVID-19 vaccine dose may prompt response in transplant recipients.
A third dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine induces a serologic response in 49 percent of kidney transplant recipients who did not respond after receiving two doses, according to a research letter published online July 23 in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Ilies Benotmane, M.D., from Strasbourg

Referral to renal unit?
I’ve recently been in hospital for angioplasty which unfortunately couldn’t go ahead due to the twisting and an aneurysm in the RCA. I had a kidney removed 3 years ago due to cancer and the remaining kidney never picked up from about 45 gfr. It has gone steadily down to 37gfr. I had blood tests carried

Has anyone used cordyceps as an adjunctive treatment for kidney disease?
Cordyceps worm mold is widely used in China to treat kidney disease, and some scientific studies indicate that it may reduce creatinine values in patients with chronic kidney disease. I have never found found much personal benefit from it. Conclusions of recent Chinese study: "Current evidence shows

Let's talk about BP and CKD. (Take your ACE at night if using it for BP too?)
Poster Gerald1967 linked to this NCBI listed article (2014) which talks about BP and natural (vs. pharma) BP control approaches. Interesting read generally, but this popped out. The journo writes it as if it's a known fact. It likely is a known fact, but just not a fact known by your typical patient

Dogs PC and Health
That adorable picture of Sparky sparked me into writing some of my ideas about dogs and I hope to hear from others. My best friend for almost 15 years was Sophie a grey Standard Poodle. She was not only smart but acutely aware and fully bonded to me. She actually picked me and who was I to refuse. I

Kidney Ultrasound
Hello all, God bless everyone on this sight. I just have a quick question. In late October 2019 during a routine CT I was told I had bilateral parapelvic kidney cysts. Witch could be pkd. Probably pkd2 due to the fact I was 54 years old . I’ve had several follow up scans here’s the most recent Ultrasound
