Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a kind disease of glomeruli that are filters of kidneys. Just like the name of this disease implies, the glomeruli suffering this disease is sclerosis, resulting abnormal filtration of blood. As a consequence, massive protein is lost into urine. Lost protein is an indirect reason of hyperlipidemia and edema.
The current treatment of FSGS
Anyone with this disease should be seen regularly by a kidney specialist, also called a nephrologist. If it is associated with some diseases, treating that particular illness becomes a priority. It is also important for someone with either primary or secondary FSGS to be on medication that reduce the mount of protein in urine. The less protein in urine, the better the patient will be. If urine protein levels are high, complications of Nephrotic Syndrome should also be considered. Patients should receive routine cholesterol screening/treatment. However, most patients will experience massive proteinuria again, which is called relapse. The relapse’s reason is that this treatment only focuses on the symptoms not the root cause, damaged glomeruli.
How to treat FSGS Effectively
Compare the body to a country whose army is our immune system. The environment we are living in is surrounded with lots of viruses and bacterium, when these invaders interrupt the body, the army will try to defeat them. In normal cases, we win the wars, which is a reason why we are healthy in most time. However, when the war is lost, some immune complexes will be formed. There are some special areas that appeal deposition of immune complexes in kidneys, which lead to immune inflammatory response. When this response cannot be controlled, it will damage kidney cells and tissues. Scarred glomeruli are also a result from this abnormal immune response. Therefore, the key to treat FSGS is to stop the generation of new immune complexes and clear out the old immune complexes. Fortunately, Micro-Chinese Medicine and a series of modern machines used for kidney treatment do have the functions to deal with the immune complexes, no matter new or old.
Without the abnormal immune inflammatory response, the symptoms and complications will disappear naturally. Any question, email me at careforkidney@gmail.com.
