Hello! My creatinine seems to be okay in the 53 to 59 for 10 years ,But I heard there is another test called cystatin C. I took that test and the gfr was 47. Have you taken this test too?
@@farshid71 i'm already made a check up with my doctor. My problem is i dont know what to eat for ckd stage 4..' m from the philippines and i dont know how to get ur book. Thanks by the way i' m 66 yrs old and 125 lbs
I’m 25, I am 99% sure I am in stage 3 CKD. Protein in my urine for a long time, urine has been darker & foamy recently, back has been hurting a lot the past few days. I think this is all due to long-term kratom use. I have been through many ups & downs the past few days. I am very, very scared of dying so young. Changing my diet tonight. Coming off of kratom very rapidly. Wish me luck & pray for me please.
"Focus on your health not your kidneys " wow! I felt a big weight being lifted off me, when I heard those words...thank you. Just that has already helped me..ty James ty Dr. For all you do for us.
It took me a long time to really understand just how important focusing on your health instead of your kidneys is - but once I started that, things got so much easier.
So happy that I came across your channel!! My brother recently was diagnosed with stage 5 kidney failure. You give us hope of becoming healthy again! I’m now on a marathon watching all of your past videos!!
I suffered acute kidney injury in Nov.. my GFR was 116 … I ended up in the hospital with my GFR at 33..I was suffering from severe dehydration .. once I was rehydrated that first day in the ER my GFR when you to 55 .. the next day it was at 65… .. my doc told me to stop taking my metformin and my Zoloft which i started taking two weeks before …. I had been vomiting since day 1.. two mos later after being released from the hospital I had blood work done and I’m at 91… I’m still in a hole from where I started but things are getting better
My mother was diagnosed with stage 5 Renal Failure due to Hypertension 3 weeks ago. Her potassium levels and blood sugar levels were normal but her uric acid was a bit high. Her symptoms were itchy skin, bad breath, nausea, muscle cramp, and she was easily out of breath. After the diagnosis, she quit her job as a housekeeper, and we ensured that her diet be free from salt. She is now currently taking up plant-based diet and egg whites combined with oatmeal and white rice. Her muscle cramps, bad breath, and nausea got better, but she still has itchy skin. we plan to do another lab test to see if her creatinine levels are getting lower. btw. her creatinine was more than 1500. But the doctor was surprised that she was still active.
How come doctor's don't talk to us about our kidneys when they see decline? I just discovered I have stage 3 kidney disease by reading through my take home paperwork which is what brought me to this video in the first place. I have never been told anything about my kidneys. My doctor just put me on omeprazole. I have learned so much today and I will definitely get the book. Also subscribed.
I would like to know that answer also. My left kidney died, atrophied, shriveled up and it is no longer functioning. Not 1 Doctor told me. And I saw a LOT of Doctors!
Wonderfully detailed, informative and sensitively presented video. Thank you both so much for taking the time and energy to create and upload. James you really listen and let the good doctor explain without interruption and only interjecting at pertinent places, this is so refreshing seeing an interviewer valuing the expertise of knowledge that we are lucky to gain access to. God bless you both and wishing you and your families great health and wellbeing in 2021.
I'm 42 year old my gfr is 55. I'm really worried. My mother died of a stroke but she was in her 70s it all is kidney related as she had started dialysis 6 months prior and development a fast heart rate. Iv changed my diet drastically. What really annoys me is the drs here in the UK only made big deal out of my gfr when it got to that number. Why didn't they warn me when it was in its 80s of 90s.
Same thing for me here in Canada. I am almost 64 years old with a GFR of 55 and I had no feedback from my doctor. I have a kidney infection and will be retested soon.
@@Justsomeone10000 Thank-you so much. I am not sure what lies ahead but have to make major changes in diet and weight. I am almost 64 with borderline BP that has to be controlled...will probably need medication now before any further damage is done. I do believe that I have some arteriosclerosis. (still relatively minor at this stage) I am worried but impatient to find out more and take it from there.
I’m a 27 year old male who has just been diagnosed with stage 2 kidney disease. After a 24 hour creatinine clearance sample, I had an egfr of 73 (up from the original 63) and a creatinine clearance of 78, which I was told is low. I’m ignorant to these numbers. I was told there was no protein found, but there was trace amounts of blood. Other than that, my primary doctor has left me in the dark for another appointment in 6 months. It’s really frustrating
Happy New Year James!!! Thanks for your help in 2020 towards my kidney. I still take Renadyl and praying my GFR # will increase to the 30’s or more. My last lab test GFR was 16 up from 12. I go tomorrow for another lab since September. Thanks again and Happy 2021. Bless you.
@@Georgerajeevmuhammed I have changed my diet. No beef or pork. Only chicken not fried. Spaghetti made ground chicken seasoned with miss dash lemon pepper seasoning. No sodas, very very little juices. At least 100 oz of water per day. I use the Fortis prebiotic supplement that comes with Renadyl. I drink maybe a glass or two of red wine (must have one vice). Hope this info helps. Plus I walk at least 5 miles every other day and 2 1/2 other days. Enjoy life!!!
im 30 yrs old. kidney donor last 2013. after 8yrs, i just found out that i have high creatinine now. with 4 egfr. ckd stage 5. i dont know what to do. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Happy New Year James. I am in Stage 5 CKD James, my kidneys stand at 10% and stable. My Creatinine is high, and gfr is low. I eat fruit and vegetables, been informed to drink 2 litres water a day. My Creatinine came down from 409 to 396. Can rehydration reverse dehydration and reverse ckd?
Hi James! First of all, thank you for all you do, your videos are very informative. My question: what did you do to decrease the protein in your urine? My eGFR is at 7 currently and there's protein in the urine. i don't wanna go through dialysis so please advise as to how i can help my kidneys recover. thank you.
It's a fantastic, helpful, and understandable book. Of all the kidney books I've bought over the years (and I feel like I have purchased them all) this is by far the best and most helpful.
@DADVICETV My parents taught me that people that are successful in life are those that read. I have acquired Dr Rosansky's book, James Fabin's book and Lee Hill's book. These books have changed my total outlook on life. Before these books, I expected to be dead in three years. Now I am planning to take a cruise, camping and traveling to Europe.
I just knew Im stage 3 kidney disease.. i tried to change my diet to plant base... i get confused is legumes good for me? How much amount i can take it per day? Thank you
The amount you can consume each day is set by your dietitian based on your health, labs, activity level, and other factors. We are each a little different, so working with a dietitian is by far the most helpful.
I am 67 years old, diagnosed with CKD while at the same time have myelofibrosis for which I am receiving blood transfusion every month. I learned that I have small kidneyes. Not sure if both or one has shrank. It turned out I have this for 9 years while battling cancer. What does the future hold for somebody with my situation? I wonder if it is ethical to request both doctors to meet and decide on something that would be effective in controlling my situaiton? Thank you.
My husband is 60 years old last September doctor advice him to go on dyialis . But he only got antibiotics . But now since 15 days he stop eating food . he's at home on drips and medicine he is too thin and weak . Help me doctor what should we do now I'm in Pakistan
You made me laugh when you mentioned drinking a lot of water to change your numbers... XD I drink a lot of water the day before the testing because if I don't, the techs have a hard time finding a decent vein!...
Thank you so much for your information. If we count our creatine level on which number is getting more and bad? And how can i reduce the creatine level. Thanking you again.
May I can take Ketto Diet? But their is lots of Pottasium & Phosphorus in Keto Rice and others because Keto Diet made from Almonds and Nuts. Please advice me.
I’m not a big fan of cookbooks since they are pretty limited in how many recipes they have. I do have a list of lots (and I mean LOTS) or recipes for free at www.dadvicetv.com/recipes. If you are new to cooking, I would recommend Cooking for your kidneys, great help in cooking and it explains the science behind cooking different foods different ways. amzn.to/38gkY6E - With that book and those links, you can make thousands of different meals.
Can being anemic injure your kidneys? 4yrs. ago my hemoglobin went down to 6 due to a bleeding gastric polyp and my kidneys never recovered. I am now stage 3.
My kidney function is 18% now my NEPHROLOGUE told me if it lower to 15% i have to go into dialysis which make me so scared .My creatinine is to high also what will i do to lower my creatinine.
I've had the same experience with my nephrologist; I'm wanting to get rid of him asap & find one who will give me some guidance to help & prolong my kidneys
that's because his goal is to get you on the dialysis machine. cheree alfred too. if i were you guys i would start downing liters of water per day and focus on two supplements: baking soda and niacin. take both daily and control your salt intake. discard your physicians and nephrologists. they're not acting in your best interests trust me.
Stopping CKD by Lee Hull is a excellent book to read to begin with. It's a large book but can be skimmed over & taken a bit at a time. Start seeing what changes in diet & lifestyle you can make to help & just keep going along a step at a time
You can order Dr. Rosansky's book through your local bookstore (great to support local businesses) or from Amazon at amzn.to/3dL8ckX For your son's diet, it's best to work with a renal dietitian who can customize your sons dietary needs with a focus on quality of life and maintaining his kidney health as long as possible.
I interviewed the Doctor behind the Bioartificial Kidney not that long ago, and it's still on track for the first version to be available around 2030. I know that sounds like a long way off, but it's been their target and they have made great progress and are still right on target. You can see that interview at www.dadvicetv.com/artificial-kidney
My doctors told me I have to think about kidney dialysis, so they have started first part of the fistula. I suffer from dehydration most of my life. Even though I keep informing my doctors who seem to be ignoring me. As for coming off kidney dialysis they maintain I can never come off it once I start it, until transplant or death.
I am scheduled to get new labs March - my last GFR was 33. Remember, GFR is only an estimate. I feel amazing, I have no symptoms, I have tons of energy, and I can do anything I want without my kidneys holding me back. Your overall health should be your focus.
@@DADVICETV In October my doctor put me on a fluid pill to help with my blood pressure ,I have stage 3b and I was born with spina bifida.I had my bloodwork done last week my GFR went from 42 to 34 in 3 months, I saw my doctor 3 days ago and asked him about it and he said taking the fluid pill everyday most likely made me dehydrated ,so now I'm on it 3 times a week
I have i think stage 4 or 5 kidney disease have automune hepatitis and im diabetic type 1 what can I do I already started dialysis since July of this year is my kidney can improve
My son is suffering CKD stage 5 ..He is only 28 years old..Dialysis is very difficult Sir.How Kidney function will be improved please you will let me know . Please you send me your book ..Renal diet please send me
Cranberry juice will not impact your kidney function. There is some data suggesting cranberry juice may help with UTI's in the bladder (which is in your pelvic region well below your kidneys). Be careful though, many cranberry juices are loaded with sugar which can be bad for you. Cranberry's themselves can be part of your renal diet, but they are not going to do anything special for your kidneys.

thank you alot for those sir,may i ask what is your current gfr stage?
I am scheduled to get new labs March - my last GFR was 33. Remember, GFR is only an estimate. I feel amazing, I have no symptoms, I have tons of energy, and I can do anything I want without my kidneys holding me back. Your overall health should be your focus.
@@DADVICETV thank you alot,you and people like you give hope to millions.god bless you
@@DADVICETV In October my doctor put me on a fluid pill to help with my blood pressure ,I have stage 3b and I was born with spina bifida.I had my bloodwork done last week my GFR went from 42 to 34 in 3 months, I saw my doctor 3 days ago and asked him about it and he said taking the fluid pill everyday most likely made me dehydrated ,so now I'm on it 3 times a week
My egfr reaches 48 after 5 days my gfr turned 75 ,what does it mean?
That's amazing!

You can refer to Dr Pratik Das at RN Tagore hospital, Kolkata, India. It might be helpful.
What about Vaping?A lot of People ask this
Vaping falls in line with smoking - both are bad habits and good ones to break for your future health.
What about cranberry juice
Cranberry juice will not impact your kidney function. There is some data suggesting cranberry juice may help with UTI's in the bladder (which is in your pelvic region well below your kidneys). Be careful though, many cranberry juices are loaded with sugar which can be bad for you. Cranberry's themselves can be part of your renal diet, but they are not going to do anything special for your kidneys.
Oh no
Stem cell therapy.
Is it possible to get off Dialysis?
While not common, some people are able to get off dialysis. A lot of factors are at play, so talk to your doctor about any possibilities for you.
Yes, as long as your kidneys are still functioning at least a little bit.
@@zensupplies8248 Are you aware of anyone who has done this? How long before it's too late
@@zainjolalbum Yes, I did. Depends on your current kidney function and how long you have been on dialysis.
