क्या आयुर्वेद मेरी किडनी की समस्या में मदद कर सकता है? - #47667

1️⃣ Be Under a Nephrologist’s Care (Mandatory) Even if you continue Ayurveda, do NOT stop nephrology follow-up. You need monitoring of: Potassium Acid levels Hemoglobin Calcium–phosphorus Fluid status These can become life-threatening silently. 2️⃣ Start Planning for Renal Replacement With GFR 11, you should be: Preparing mentally & medically for dialysis Getting transplant evaluation started (because you are young) 👉 Many patients regret delaying this. 3️⃣ Diet is CRITICAL Even “balanced” diets can be dangerous in CKD. General rules (must be individualized): Low protein (not high-protein) Low potassium Low phosphorus Strict salt restriction Fluid control ⚠️ Some Ayurvedic herbs can be nephrotoxic at this stage. 🟡 Can Ayurveda Be Continued? Yes, ONLY IF: No heavy metals No unknown powders No high-protein formulations Regular blood tests every 2–4 weeks Nephrologist is aware Ayurveda should be supportive, not primary, at this stage. ⏳ Realistic Outlook (Honest) Aspect Reality Kidney recovery ❌ Not possible Stopping progression ⚠️ Maybe slow Avoid dialysis forever ❌ Very unlikely Long-term survival ✅ With dialysis/transplant Transplant success (young age) ⭐ Very good 💙 A Reassuring Note You are only 27 — this is actually a big advantage: Transplant outcomes are excellent at your age Many people live normal, active lives after transplant Early planning = better outcomes.

Thank you for being open about your health, Anjali 🌿. Since your GFR is 11, creatinine 6.74, proteinuria, and shrunken kidneys, this is end‑stage kidney disease (Stage 5 CKD). Ayurveda can only play a supportive role here — it cannot reverse kidney shrinkage or restore GFR.

The medicines below are traditionally used to support kidney function, reduce swelling, and improve energy:

1.Chandraprabha vati 2 tab twice daily with water after meals 2.Varunadi kwath 30 ml eith 30 ml water twice daily after meals 3.Gokshuardi guggulu 2 tab twice daily with water after meals 4.Punarnavarishta 20 ml with 20 ml water twice daily after meals

Diet & Lifestyle - Low protein: Favor rice, wheat, vegetables; avoid excess pulses, meat, eggs. - Low potassium & phosphorus: Limit bananas, potatoes, tomatoes, dairy, nuts. - Salt restriction: Minimal salt to reduce swelling and blood pressure. - Hydration: Controlled fluid intake as per nephrologist’s advice. - Routine: Gentle yoga (Shavasana, Anulom Vilom) and adequate rest.

Warm Regards Dr.Anjali Sehrawat

Hlo,

Ayurveda and herbal at this stage will only give you supportive care.

From the numbers and information you provided: GFR of 11: This indicates stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is severe. Creatinine 6.74 mg/dL: This is very high and consistent with advanced kidney failure. Protein in urine and small kidneys (7.2 cm): This suggests long-standing kidney damage that has caused scarring/shrinkage.

At this stage, the kidneys are unlikely to recover function, even with herbal or alternative treatments like Ayurveda. Treatments such as those from Karma Ayurveda may help with general health or symptom management, but they cannot reverse advanced kidney damage.

For someone with GFR 11, the priority should be: Consult a nephrologist immediately if you haven’t already. Discuss kidney replacement therapy: Dialysis (hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis) may become necessary soon to remove toxins and manage your health. Kidney transplant could be an option if you are eligible.

Manage complications: Blood pressure control Electrolytes and fluid balance Anemia management Avoiding medicines or supplements that can worsen kidney function

While Ayurveda may provide supportive care—like helping with blood pressure, inflammation, or general wellbeing—it cannot replace life-saving therapies like dialysis. Continuing only Ayurveda at this stage is very risky. Given your age (27), starting dialysis early can give you a much better quality of life and allow time for a transplant evaluation.

Thank you for sharing your reports. I understand how difficult and worrying this situation can be, especially at your age.

Based on the information you provided—GFR around 11, creatinine 6.74, presence of protein in urine, and kidney size around 7.2 cm—this indicates advanced chronic kidney disease (near end-stage). Smaller kidney size usually suggests that the damage has been present for a long time and is structural and irreversible.

It is important to be very clear and honest: no treatment system can regenerate or reverse shrunken kidneys at this stage. Ayurveda also does not claim regrowth of kidneys in advanced chronic kidney disease.

That said, Ayurveda can still be used in a supportive role, such as: Helping to slow further progression (to a limited extent) Improving digestion and metabolism (agni) Reducing symptoms like fatigue, poor appetite, swelling Supporting overall quality of life

Any Ayurvedic treatment should be carefully selected, avoiding nephrotoxic substances, heavy metals, or strong diuretics, and should be taken only under supervision with regular monitoring of kidney function.

At the same time, it is essential that you remain under the care of a nephrologist, as a GFR of 11 requires close monitoring and preparation for future renal support therapies if needed.

Ayurveda and modern medicine can be used together, but Ayurveda should be viewed as supportive care, not a guaranteed cure, in advanced stages of kidney disease.

Please continue regular follow-ups, blood tests, and a carefully planned kidney-friendly diet and lifestyle.

💊Medications💊

Remember this is only supportive not curative.

Syp. Stonvil 3 tsp twice a day before food Tab. Chandraprabha Vati 2 tabs twice a day before food

Also donot stress yourself with too many medicines as these medicines are eleminated from the kidney only. They can add stress to your kidneys.

Take opinion of nephrologist first . We have to make these absurd figures to a controlling point in scute condition ayurvedic medicine have not shown promising results. I advise you to go for nephrologist.
