Diabetes is a disease in which people’s blood sugar levels are two high. It
affects people around the world. The high blood sugar level can influence all
the systems of human body, so Diabetes can cause many complications, and
Diabetic Nephropathy is one of them. If the kidney damage can not be controlled
well, the condition will develop into Renal Failure.
If the patients with Diabetes experience the following signs and symptoms,
they may imply the patients have had kidney damages.
1. Swelling in eyelids and/or feet and legs
2. Foams in urine due to protein loss
3. High blood pressure
Generally speaking, most of the patients do not go to see a doctor until they
develop serious edema, uncontrolled high blood pressure etc. In that condition,
they at least have developed stage 3 of Diabetic Kidney Disease. Once Renal
Failure occurs, the conventional therapies are not enough to reverse the
impaired kidneys at all.
In this way, the patients with Diabetes will be able to avoid dialysis or
kidney transplant.
The treatment Renal Failure patients really need is the one which can help
them enhance the kidney function and avoid dialysis and kidney transplant. We
need other blood purification techniques such as plasma exchange, immune
absorption, blood perfusion to eliminate the medium molecular and macromolecular
substances which dialysis can not eliminate. After the blood is cleaned
thoroughly, we need Chinese herbal medicines to repair the damaged kidneys and
nourish them, different kinds of herbals medicines have different functions.
After a period of time, the kidney function can be improved gradually. As long
as the kidney function can be enhanced, Renal Failure patients have the
possibility to avoid dialysis and kidney transplant. Apart from the kidney
damage, Diabetes is also need to be treated, while Chinese herbal medicines also
have such a function of lowering blood sugar.
