PKD Sufferers Can Still Live a Full Life

PKD Sufferers Can Still Live a Full Life

 

Polycystic kidney disease—it's a genetic disease that affects thousands of people all over the world. When left untreated or managed, it makes the sufferer susceptible to plenty of serious illnesses including kidney failure and aneurysm. Yes, it can mean death.

 

It's understandable therefore to feel helpless and hopeless if you have PKD. A lot of the patients do fall into depression. However, with proper knowledge about the illness and treatment, you can live a full life and exist peacefully with it.

 

Defining PKD

 

PKD is a type of kidney disease where cysts grow inside the kidneys. The kidneys are very small organs found on each side of the body. They are responsible for filtering wastes in the body, getting rid of anything excessive and toxins through urine. Their size is comparable to that of the fist. When you have PKD, numerous cysts cause your kidneys to enlarge and make them less capable of doing their job. If the problem gets too serious, PKD can lead to kidney failure.

 

If you have family members who suffered from the illness, then there's a high chance you have it too. You probably have PKD if you have the following signs and symptoms:

 

  • Urinary tract infection
  • Cysts in the pancreas and liver
  • Kidney stones
  • High blood pressure
  • Diverticulosis
  • Blood in the urine (hematuria)

 

These symptoms can appear in other illnesses, so to be sure you should see a doctor and have yourself properly diagnosed.


What Are the Risks of PKD?

 

An unmanaged PKD leads to several diseases. These include high blood pressure and chronic pain. You may suddenly wake up in the middle of the night with shooting pains at the lower side of your back, where the kidneys are located. You may also suffer from kidney or bladder infections a lot of times all throughout your life. Moreover, the cysts may develop complications and grow too big they block your entire kidney. This medical issue can lead to acute kidney failure. It's also possible to develop aneurysm.

 

The common treatments for PKD include medications, some of which should be taken on a daily basis. If the cysts are huge or the pain is too severe, the doctor may advise surgery to remove them. The same procedure is performed if cysts are found in the liver.

 

Prevent a Worsening PKD

 

Know, though, that you also have the power to manage your own illness.

 

It helps greatly if you can keep your blood pressure in check. Maintain an ideal weight for your body and height. Avoid food that is high in sodium and fat. Instead, consume more fruits and vegetables, as well those that are rich in fiber.

 

You should also learn to manage your stress, as stress lowers your immune system, making you more prone to infection including bladder and kidney infection. You can reduce stress through subliminal messages, like "I let go of stress every time I breathe out" or "I invite positivity into my life with every breath."
