Question 1

I have been experiencing pain on both sides of my abdomen, near the kidneys and ribcage. My physician advised an ultrasound, and the report indicates a left renal calculus and bilateral renal pelvis dilation, suggesting UTI or cystitis. Other organs like kidney, liver, and bladder appear normal. What should be my next step? Should I consult a kidney specialist or continue with a general physician?

Question 2

I have been diabetic for the last 15 years. My last blood report shows fasting 109, after lunch 118, creatinine 1.14 mg and GFR 65.52 ml. I have second stage mild kidney loss and weigh 77 kg. Sometimes I have burning sensation during urination. Can you recommend any medicine for my kidney?

Question 3

My grandmother urine test showed positive occult blood. Our doctor prescribed Cital, and she has been taking it for 12 days. However, in the last 2 days, she has developed swelling in her feet and face. Could you please confirm if Cital is the right medication for her condition?

What is the CA 125 blood test?

A CA 125 test measures the amount of the protein CA 125 (cancer antigen 125) in the blood. This test may be used to monitor certain cancers during and after treatment.
