This in itself is bad; what’s worse is that it increases blood pressure too. High blood pressure, in turn, further increases pressure on the kidneys’ filtering system. If left unchecked, this will surely result in kidney failure. This is a life-threatening condition and dialysis or kidney transplant are the only treatment choices.
However, this is not inevitable. Through a proper diet-nutrition-stress control routine, even very highly diabetic patients can bring their counts back to normal and save themselves from kidney damage. Besides reversing diabetes, Freedom from Diabetes has many patients with kidney issues whose creatinine levels got under control and many who saved from going for dialysis.
Diabetic Nephropathy Symptoms
Like diabetes itself, kidney disease caused by diabetes—or diabetic nephropathy, to give it its clinical name—is almost asymptomatic. As damage progresses, however, the following signs can be experienced:
- Erratic or hard-to-regulate BP
- Water retention (and swelling) in feet, hands, and around the eyes
- Increased frequency of urination
- Fatigue and lethargy
- Disorientation or difficulty in concentrating
- Shortness of breath
- Appetite loss
- Nausea, puking
- Itching
If you experience any of the above or are suffering from diabetes, it is recommended that you have regular checks, with tests for kidney function, and consultations with your doctor.
Complications resulting from diabetic nephropathy
Over time, sufferers may experience a variety of problems from fluid retention to erectile dysfunction. If any of the below diabetic nephropathy symptoms are seen, it is critical to get immediate medical attention in order to avoid irreversible kidney damage.
