Did your husband have a growth or something on his kidney? or just high protein levels? What were the symptoms of what he has, if there were any?

He now has a persistent cough (which doctors cannot figure out why). He can't climb the stairs to go to bed without needing his oxygen once he gets up there. His circulation has worsen over the past year.

High concentrations of GGT are found in the liver, bile ducts, and the kidney. Hence kidney and urinary problems could be causing the high GGT level. Greater-than-normal levels of GGT may indicate: congestive heart failure, cholestasis (congestion of the bile ducts), cirrhosis, hepatitis, liver ischemia (blood flow deficiency), liver necrosis, liver tumor, high alcohol intake, use of hepatotoxic drugs (drugs toxic to liver).

hey, dialysis is tough, Ive been a kidney patient for 6 years now, and am learning the ups and downs of the disease. Its tough, good luck. Creatinine increase could mean two things : 1. inadequate dialysis or 2. protein in diet...

Actually kidney function will remain in the normal range until most of the kidney function is lost. Lots of people with kidney problems only have RBC and protein in their urine in the early stages.

The effect of dietary protein restriction on kidney disease is the subject of debate. If you have hypertension, diabetes, or coronary disease, it is important that you control these to prevent further deterioration of your kidney function. smoking cessation and adequate nutrition are also important.

A serious body builder eats six times a day, so taking extra protein is hardly likely to cut into nutrients. However, body builders can pay a severe price by trying to get bigger.

Urine test shows presence of blood AND protein. Urine is cloudy off and on when pain is present and often when pain is not present as well. I am 31 years old. Female.

It was only after I asked if he was sure that he said oh well we will repeat them and you just need to drink more.

hi and welcome....truth is Vets know very little about nutrition. cats need protein, even now studies are finding high protein is even ok for cats with CRF. so don't you worry about getting too high, as long as all the ingredients are balanced. and they are with commercial foods, its homemade diets that you have to be careful with.

She has quickly moved to Stage 3 kidney disease. We originally attributed her failing kidney function to her food. We have been feeding her gluten free food because of her allergies, but they have a high protein and sometimes higher sodium and phosphorus content.
