Avatar m tn I have been doing researches on the recipe,which handed down from my forefathers,can cure all kinds of nephritis(except Kidney Failure and Uremia because they are not reversible). The recipe is comprised of several kinds of plants and this (secret) recipe has never become published.I assure you that the mixture contains no toxic substance.This prescription is characteristic by miraculous curative effort and short course of physiotherapy (according to the state of illness).
422425 tn?1307992990 After a biopsy I was diagnosed with interstitial nephritis. I was wondering if anyone has heard of this? Does it ever go away? I have large amounts of blood and protein in my urine and my kidney functions are decreased and have been for about 4 years already. I am scheduled with a kidney dr in a few weeks. Because it has been a year I am getting a little concerned. My DR doesn't have a lot of answers for me.
Avatar f tn I have talked to my GP about this and I have even mentioned being tested for Lupus Nephritis, but he just tells me that anytime he has checked my kidneys they have been fine. I know there is something going on because of the pain and the reoccuring infections. Any tips or suggestions?
Avatar m tn According to your test result, you may have inchoate nephritis, the remarkable urine protein and urine blood is inchoate nephritis’ important characteristic, but it cannot be diagnosed by the result of only one time of urine test, you can do urine test twice another week, and tell me about your test result, so that I can help you to get diagnosis

Avatar m tn I also had acute nephritis as a young child, this means that normal pain relief medications are not available to me. I also have a permanent back injury from a police assault when I was a teen! I also suffer from a severe sciatica (approx 20 years). Due to my boxing training and all my activities being very physical, I am extremely fit, no cholesterol, blood pressure is normal, and my sugar levels are normal.
Avatar n tn I was affected by nephritis 7 years before (Due to some infection,through wound), Treatment was perfect and at perfect time. After that my urine is foamy some times (may be evening,morning like that).If i drink lot of water, then foam is not there. I have done lot of tests including blood urea, creatinin,urine albumin......a lot of tests at least twice in year. The results of all tests are normal till now. I don't have any other symptoms of kidney related problems.

Avatar n tn C4 and other complements are low in lupus and high in rheumatoid arthritis and certain cancers. Decreased component activity is also seen in nephritis, cirrhosis, bacterial infections, malnutrition, hereditary angioedema, and hepatitis. Hope this helps. Do let me know if there is any thing else and keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar m tn s nothing major at the moment, but you do need to have it monitored, because anything over 0.3g per 24 hour urine collection is significant. And if you do have nephritis, you will need to be on medication. Is your kidney function normal? I guess it should be. Any RBC or WBC in your urinalysis? Normal blood pressure?
Avatar f tn in fact, they probably miss many because they can’t see any relationship between them. Asthma, nephritis and MS can be linked by chronic infections that can affect all of these and more. In fact, there are probably other signs/symptoms that you haven’t yet recognized.
Avatar f tn Hi, One of the goodies which comes along for some of us Lupus patients is Lupus Nephritis. Some of us are also on certain meds which cause kidney damage or deficiancy not related to Lupus Nephritis. Right now your kidneys are OK. Repeating it in three months maybe because you are on cerain meds or in the process of you being tested for Lupus your doctor would like to keep a close watch on your kidneys particularly if you are having what is known as a Lupus Flare.

Avatar m tn Your cat may need some other medications to help with the stress. Stress can be implicated in a disease called interstitial nephritis or FLUTD or FUS.

568603 tn?1240404035 Thanks for the feedback. I do have lupus nephritis, and have had this disease for 3 years now. Do you think it's the lupus that's triggering this numbness in my right side. And also the doctor told me that it couldn't be my lupus. I'm just concern and need to know the next steps that i should take when i go see my doctor and also i will get a second opinion.
Avatar n tn If the symptoms persist then pls get other possibilities ruled out.The other possibilities are interstitial cystitis, interstitial nephritis,lupus,hypercalcemia,hyperthyroidism,hypopituitarism,hypoaldosteronism,hypokalemia,renal glycosuria,Addison’s disease and polycythemia.Pls consult a urologist and get these possibilities ruled out.I hope that helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar f tn Hi, I have nephritis so my kidney function is decreasing. I asked my doctor if I could have a child about 5 years ago. He agreed as I really wanted it but needed closely monitoring, I conceived easily and my function was around 50 % at that point. I was quite sick during my pregnancy and they struggled to control my bp due to not being able to be on my normal tablets. I now have a healthy but little 4 year old (She had to be born early due to my bp, 5lb4).
6249868 tn?1379820575 Hello, Renal parenchymal disease is not a single disease but a pathological state. It is caused by glomerular diseases, chronic interstitial nephritis, adult polycystic kidney disease, etc. No matter what the original cause is, renal parenchymal diseases are characterized by scarring of the kidneys and renal fibrosis. There are many factors that can cause renal parenchymal damages such as infections, toxins (including some renal toxicity medicines), abuse or improper intake of drugs, etc.
