Can IgA Nephropathy Grade 5 Be Brought Under Controlled

According to the severity of glomeruli lesions, IgA Nephropathy(Berger’s Disease) is classified into five grades(About the five grades of IgA Nephropathy, you can get at Which Stage of IgA Nephropathy Are You in). Grade V is the severest stage of IgA Nephropathy.

Brief introduction to Mr Hu

Mr Hu is such a patient. When he did physical examination in 2011, he found that there was urine protein 3+, BLD 3+ and serum creatinine 120 umol/L. But at that time importance was not attached, because the doctor did not say much words about those results. From last year, his urine became very foamy so that he came to local hospital to do examination. The medical test reported that his urine protein was 3+, BLD was 2+, 24 hour urine protein was 8.58 g and serum creatinine raised to 232 umol/L. After renal biopsy, he was diagnosed with IgA Nephropathy Grade V.

His treatment experience in various hospital

He had been in local hospital for 84 days. After treatment, his foamy urine was improved. But in July 2014, his legs became swelling again. His urine protein was again 3+, BLD increased to 3+ and serum creatinine raised to 441 umol/L. After a series of treatment, he did not receive a good therapeutic effect, so he changed to another hospital. But his creatinine level had been to 505.

In September, he came to a bigger hospital but still not received a satisfying effect. And his creatinine level kept increasing. It became 588. Some patients introduced Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, so he decided to have a try.
Treatment in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital

At this time, his creatinine level was as high as 613. In such case, dialysis is usually suggested to detoxify the blood and maintain life. But Mr Hu did not want to do dialysis. When coming to Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, doctors here did not make treatment plan immediately, but explained IgA Nephropathy in detail to help the patient to know more about his medical condition. IgA Nephropathy is a kind of mesangial cell disease caused by deposition of IgA and its immune complexes. The main treatment is to cleanse those substances to prevent further damage. The treatment before such as steroids can only help you control symptoms. If you do not remove those harmful substance, they will continue to impair your kidney function. That is why creatinine level keeping going up.

In our hospital, Mr Hu does not only took oral Chinese medicine, but also use external therapies, such as hot compress therapy, medicated bath, acupuncture and moxibustion. The combination can improve blood circulation and detoxify the blood so as to set up a good blood environment for kidney self-healing. After a period of treatment, his creatinine came down, blood pressure was stabilized and urine output increased. We believe his condition will be better and better if he keeps our treatment.

It is really very difficult to be treated in grade V IgA Nephropathy. But with the treatment of Traditional Chinese Medicine, we can help you restore some kidney function and improve life quality.
