Homeopathy might help avoid dialysis in chronic kidney disease if the kidney function is 50% or more. An early intervention coupled with diet, exercise and lifestyle change might be of help.
Homeopathy might not be of help in the end-stage kidney failure. But if used as an auxiliary measure, it might help reduce the frequency of dialysis i.e. increase the gap between dialysis sessions.
Side by side with homoeopathy, diet, exercise and lifestyle change are essential.
Homoeopathy can help slow down CKD. Diet, exercise and lifestyle change are essential.
Symptoms of kidney failure are: feeling dehydrated, fatigue, lethargy, swelling, shortness of breath, confusion, dullness, nausea, vomiting, dry skin, etc.
Here are some case reports from my practice
Chronic kidney disease
15-06-2015 (Case No. 1)
Mr. MA 54 years
Having suffered for 30 years with kidney stones and chronic kidney disease, the patient had been advised to undergo kidney transplant.
According to the narration of the patient, he had the tendency to form calculi (stones) in right kidney. First surgery was in 1992 for right ureter stone which measured about 1.5 cm. DJ stent planted in 1993 and several lithotripsy sessions at Taj Medical Complex and Ziauddin Hospital. According to the reports, DJ stent was replaced in 2005-2006 and removed on March 31, 2015. In the meantime, he also underwent PNCL (PCNL is a procedure to remove stones). On chemical analysis, one surgically removed stone showed its composition as 66% calcium oxalate, 15% calcium phosphate, 06% cystine and 07% organic material.
According to the reports, Left kidney is fine and functions at 86.9%, compensating for the under-functioning right kidney (13.1%)
and finally he was advised to have his right kidney removed.
During a period of 11 months, there were 7 visits, the patient generally felt better, quality of his sleep improved. The laboratory values of uric acid, creatinine, urea, etc, ranged between normal and slightly above normal. If there was indiscretion in food, the values increased but afterwards came down.
