Hello,
My mother(age 56) also suffers from PKD. She is under allopathic treatment for the last 4 years.The reports state the disease as "Polycystic Kidney and Polycystic Liver".
I heard that the cysts can effect the brain in long run and that can cause drastic situation like paralysis. How much of this is true? and what is the chance of that happening?
She displays the following symptoms: At times she feels dizziness and vomits profusely and can't digest anything, not even medicine. Her livers are enarged and ultrasonography reports shows presence of cysts in large quantity. Also she feels stiffnes and pain in the pelvic front region and pain in the chest. All the pains are in the right side of the body.
Adiitonally, she has got constipation, and her haemoglobin level hovers around 8. She also feels a pressure at the right side of head whenever she does some heavy work, like carrying a weight of around 1.5 kg, etc.
Please help me with suggestions and prescriptions for medicines. I am very tensed about her situation.
Thanks in advance,
Rana

Who will undergo this process of dialysis?
According to the National Kidney Foundation, 26 million American adults have chronic kidney disease; about 50,000 of those patients end up receiving renal replacement therapy, whether it be dialysis or (many fewer) a kidney transplant. As kidney disease progesses, the body's ability to process/eliminate wastes as well as regulate a number of metabolic processes diminishes. Common risk factors for the development of such kidney insufficiency include long-standing/poorly-controlled hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and poly-cystic kidney disease.
