Patient: How do I go about being treated? I have Polycystic Kidney - TopicsExpress



          

Patient: How do I go about being treated? I have Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) and my creatinine level is 1.35mg/dL. I have pain in my back at times. Occasionally my urine smells like whatever I have eaten. I also am on two blood pressure medications along with an anxiety medication. Doctor: The traditional treatment for PKD is operation, like laparoscopic renal cyst decortication and pumping fluid hardening operation. But these operations just aim at the big cysts and leave the small ones alone. Although the elimination of big cysts can ease the pressure on kidney, it also offers space for the small ones. And small kidney cysts will grow quite fast. pkdtreatment/faq-about-pkd/1347.html
