Question 1

My mom is 65 and her recent tests show EGFR 76 with creatinine at 0.93 mg/dl she's been diagnosed with CKD stage 2. Is treatment necessary at this point or is it okay to just monitor? Should we see a nephrologist now or wait? Also, she's scheduled for gallstone surgery next month is it safe for her to go ahead with the procedure given her kidney condition?

Accepted Answer

For a 65-year-old with stage 2 CKD (eGFR 76, creatinine 0.93 mg/dL), monitoring and lifestyle modifications are likely the initial approach, while a nephrologist consultation is recommended, not necessarily immediately, but within the next few months to assess the underlying cause and discuss long-term management options. The gallstone surgery is generally safe if properly managed, especially if the surgeon is aware of the kidney condition.

Question 2

I'm feeling a bit worried about my dad's latest blood test results. His SGPT is at 80, SGOT is 72, serum urea is 78, serum creatinine is 4.7, and bilirubin is 16.5. Are these numbers something to be concerned about? Does this indicate any serious issues or abnormal conditions we should be aware of?

Accepted Answer

every thing is normal.

Question 3

I'm really worried about my father. He's got an electrolyte issue, and his sodium level is at 131, potassium is 4.4, and chloride is at 93. Are these levels something to be concerned about? What steps can we take to address this imbalance?

Accepted Answer

Your father's electrolyte levels show a slight imbalance. To correct this, I recommend using a medication called "Oral Rehydration Solution" with a dosage of 200-400 ml every 1-2 hours until the electrolyte levels stabilize. This solution will help replenish the sodium, potassium, and chloride levels in his body.
