How to Treat Chronic Kidney Disease with Creatinine of 900


Question: my aunt has chronic kidney disease and her creatinine was 900 and kidney function is 15%. She has started dialysis for about 2 month. Is there any hope that her kidney functions been improved. And can you tell me some diet suggestions for we really do not know what safe foods for her are because everything is restricted.
Answer: You said that your aunt just started the dialysis for about 2 months, and the creatinine level is still high, about 900, for she has not been on dialysis for that a long time, so it is hopful for her to get rid of the dialysis. Her current GFR is about 15 now, which means she is still in the boardline between stage 4 and 5, where there is still room for the kidney function to get raised,
To keep the kidney function, the most important is to keep a balanced diet; here i will give you a detailed diet list for the diabetes and renal failure patient.
The following menu will maintain not only low caloric intake, but low glucose levels to help manage diabetic neuropathy.
BREAKFAST: 2 slices whole wheat toast, 4 tsp. natural peanut butter, 1 banana and 8 oz. of 1 percent milk.
LUNCH: a small salad consisting of lettuce, radish, cucumber, 1/2 cup carrots, 1/2 cup green pepper (diced) with 3/4 cup tuna fish packed in water and 1 tbsp. low-fat ranch salad dressing. Top it off with 10 small green olives. 12 soda crackers (unsalted tops), 1 peach and water or sugar-free beverage.
DINNER: 6 oz. sirloin steak (with the fat trimmed), 1/2 cup cooked onions and 1/2 cup cooked mushrooms, 1 tsp. canola oil to saute the onions and mushrooms for topping steak, 1/2 cup cooked spinach, 1 large baked sweet potato (approximately 9 oz.), 2 tbsp. sour cream (optional) and water or sugar-free beverage.
SNACK: 1/2 cup strawberries.

How to Control My High Creatinine Level


Creatinine can be tested for via a blood sample or via a urine sample. On its own a blood sample is more accurate than a urine sample, though combining them together to form what is called a creatinine clearance test (both blood and urine) is the most accurate test.
The reference of normal creatinine level:
Male adults: Between 0.6 mg / dl to 1.2 mg / dl
Female adults: Between 0.5 mg / dl to 1. mg / dl
Infants: Around 0.2 mg / dl or more
Older children: Between 0.3 mg / dl to 0.7 mg / dl
Teenagers: Between 0.5 mg / dl to 1.0 mg / dl
High creatinine levels occur due to any number of diseases that cause the kidneys to shut down, including dehydration, shock, congestive heart failure, and bladder outlet obstruction.
In case of persistent high creatinine, consult with your doctor to develop a personalized diet that is low in protein. High creatinine levels in diabetic people are generally a sign of poor kidney function. The amount of protein you eat on this diet depends on how much you weigh, so do not attempt this diet on your own. You will also need to test frequently to be sure that the creatinine levels in your urine are increasing and the levels in your blood are decreasing. This indicates that the creatinine is being excreted properly. Doctors will prescribe Lasix, a strong diuretic, to promote urination. This is another reason a person with high creatinine levels must drink plenty of water which can help reduce its concentration and help discharge it with urination.
