My husband has PKD and is seeing a Nephrologist in our town, however in doing
some research I found a specialist in a nearby city that specializes in PKD and
is recommended by the KidneyFoundation. the problem is his doctor won t give him
a referral. I even went back to the original doctor that made the diagnosis but
his office said he can t give the referral because it s been over two years
since the original doctor has seen him. HELP!
PKD is genetic kidney disease, so if we find a treatment which can eradicate
PKD, our children will be free from this disease. However, how to eradicate
PKD?
Actually, not every person with PKD gene will definitely suffer this disease.
For some people, they may live with PKD gene for a life-long time without have
any kidney damages. Although this case is rare, it exists truly.
Once PKD occurs, it is almost impossible for us to eradicate radically,
because we have no methods to remove all the cysts from kidneys. Surgery is the
traditional treatment for PKD and it treats PKD through breaking big cysts. We
know PKD means there are countless cysts in the kidneys and surgery only can
remove several cysts in one time, so it is impractical for us to eradicate PKD
through surgery.TREATMENT TRE
As for treatment for PKD, Immunotherapy is worth trying. Immunotherapy
combines Chinese medicines and Stem Cell Treatment which are separately applied
to shrinking cysts and increasingrenal functions.
