As a hereditary kidney disease, there is no cure for Polycystic Kidney
Disease at
present. The conventional treatments are only symptomatic treatments,
they can only help relieve the symptoms and slow down the progression of the
disease. As the multiple cysts in the kidneys grow larger and larger, they will
compress the renal tissues and cells and replace the normal kidney tissues and
in the end develop into renal failure and uremia. Usually at the end stage of
Polycystic Kidney Disease, patients have to rely on dialysis to maintain their
normal life.
How Much Kidney Function to Avoid Dialysis
Dialysis can help replace the functions of the kidneys to discharge the
metabolic wastes in the body like creatinine, uric acid and urea nitrogen. But
in the long run, it is not so satisfying. Since the metabolism is going on every
minute in the body and the metabolic wastes will be continuously produced, so
the patients have to do dialysis again and again. However as we all know that
long time taking of dialysis will cause many complications such as malnutrition,
infections and loss of stamina. What is worse, after a period of dialysis, the
remaining workable nephrons will cease to work any more and there is no chance
for the patients to reverse the kidney damages and get recovered.Can Kidney Failure Patient Avoid Dialysis The Treatment for Renal Failure Patients to Avoid Dialysis
How should I do to get rid of dialysis and is there any hope that I can still
get rid of dialysis once started? These are the most frequently asked questions
by Polycystic Kidney Disease(PKD) patients. There is indeed other alternative
treatment that can help the patients get rid of dialysis. That is the
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy and Stem Cell Transplant. Usually the two
treatments are combined especially when the patient’s illness conditions are too
serious. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has the functions of promoting blood
circulation and removing blood stasis so that it can provide a favorable
internal environment for the stem cells to take effects. Stem cells are a series
original cells which can differntiate into different cells. Once injected into
Polycystic Kidney Disease(PKD) patients’ body, the stem cells will differentiate
into new functioning renal cells to replace the dead and necrotic kidney cells.
Stem cells can help re-build the kidney functions. Once the kidney functions are
recovered, the patients will need no dialysis any more.
