Thank you

My egfr 40 last 35 day ago. Now increase to 59. I just controlled my protein intake, cut sugar and monitor salt intake. Everyday im skip my breakfast. Hope my egfr back to normal within 2 months

Thank you for sharing this important information! It’s so reassuring to hear about CKD and GFR from someone who understands the challenges. This video has really helped me better understand my condition and feel more empowered to manage it. Keep up the great work!

Is a creatine level of 1.41 alarming for a 27-year-old male?

Nice

Hi, i really like your videos. But i wanted to ask you to try to lower the background music or to not have any background music. It is hard to listen with this music on. Thanks for your videos, they are very helpful

Thanks Dr. Cronin! I’m a patient who follows your channel, and am re-testing as my LDL jumped to 160 in one year! Menopause I think, as my diet hasn’t changed. Good to know this information in case I need to go on a statin.

Why would the development of Calcium oxalate crystals due to ethylene glycol toxicity damage the kidneys since they only form kidney stones and these can be easily removed.

Thank you a million times over!!! for this explanation, I'm so happy I found your channel. I so desperately needed this question answered.

How often/in what situation do you check calcitonin?

This is the most helpful video I have seem. Iwas freaking out until I saw this.

Hello doctor, if it's possible please can you do a video about Alport's disease? I discovered to have it two weeks ago and there is no so much information online, I guess because it's a rare disease. Thank you

What is symmetric enhancement of bilateral renal parenchyma without solid focal pathology?

The format is a bit convoluted.

Thank you so much this video is very helpful 🙏🏼

Minha esposa tem essa doença .😢

I have a 7mm I'm afraid of surgery 😮

Great video Dr.Cronin. Been wondering this for a while. Always felt counterintuitive to suggest low protein diet to my frail patients.

I follow a whole food, plant based diet. No meat & very limited dairy. CKD stage 3 for 9 years!

Useful.

Is this drug recommended for reducing proteinuria in non-diabetic patients with normal GFR?

excellent

Good for you 👏 and thanks for the cheat code

Thanks for the video. Its very hard to stop PPIs considering the great relief they bring for GERD. Without this medication I would almost certainly have Barrett's or peptic ulcer. I have a gastric hiatal hernia which is probably the main problem. My plasma creatinine has risen too over the last 10 years or so possibly due to PPIs but possibly also to uncontrolled hypertension I had for a short time. Esomeprazole seems the least renal damaging. I also substitute this with a H2 blocker (famotidine) three times per week. Loss of renal function is a very real concern with PPIs. Reducing abdominal fat would help a lot but this is difficult.

Good explanation. Thanks!👍

Ive been suffering from low urine output for almost 3 months, my crea,bun, urinalysis and kub are all normal. Im having headache sometimes and skin burning sensation along with pin and needles and feeling hot but no fever.. my nephro has no clue what is happening to me. Doc whats wrong with me?

Thanks

Excellent video with very useful and valuable info. . I had a multi big stone issue in left kidney only about 8 years ago that has made my left kidney atrophic by about 1cm smaller. Function was about 15% last I checked 6 years ago . How often do you suggest I do a renal comparison scan for function? What determines removal function or pain? Surgery was not able to remove all stones because some 10mm ones are stuck in lower pole calyx. My GFR is in the 60 -65 area and I have heard removing a kidney even with limited function drops GFR significantly . Thanks ,,Love the channel ..

Thank you!!

Hi Dr. C! Not sure of the HIPPA implications, but if you still see patients, are you permitted to advertise your channel with them? It may help grow your audience. You clearly care about your patients & the topics you cover. I wonder who your target audience is. Other physicians - which it seems to be, or those with CKD?

What should be the ideal way to estimate egfr in a transplant kidney ( for drug dosing )

Very cool!

I am 44 years male , Indian Origin living in Australia, Regular Gym goer , My Creatinine is 1.74 mg/DL ( EGFR = 47 ml/min/1.73m2) based on which I was told Stage 3 CKD. I go to gym 6 days a week and eat high protein diet so I almost forced my Doctor to do a Cystatine C test EGFR and guess what my Cystatine C is 0.77 mg/L ( EGFR 113 ml/min/1.73m2) . Doctor was really angry ....Go figure

👍

Here’s my approach to resistant hypertension: 1. ARB Telmisartan is my favorite 2. Nifedipine (may use as first line if African American or pulmonary hypertension) 3. Chlorthalidone Once you’re maxed out on 3 agents screen for causes of resistant hypertension: pheochromocytoma, hyperaldosteronism, Cushings, hyperthyroid, renal artery stenosis, and of course med non adherence, obesity, and excessive sodium intake 4. Spironolactone 5. Carvedilol 6. Minoxidil 7. Hydralazine I don’t prescribed clonidine; the rebound effects are a nightmare. In my experience every patient can be controlled with lifestyle, the above medications, and management of comorbidities

Hi Dr. C! I hope you tell your patients about your channel so you can get more subscribers.

I'm 50 and at 62 eGFR due to narrowed ureters. They want to give me a bilateral nephrostomy. I said no way! I'm not near the danger zone yet!
