This 50-year-old lady
had been suffering from lumbar pains and swelling eyelids,
accompanied by proteinuria for 6 years. Her conditions became
severe in recent 2 years. The patient was hospitalized in our
hospital for TCM treatment at 20:00 on Oct. 21, 2011.
Essential for Diagnosis:
1. The patient had been
suffering from lumbar pains and swelling eyelids, accompanied by
proteinuria for 6 years. Her conditions became severe in recent
2 years.
2. The patient said she
had to stop her menstruation for the praying activities. After
took the medicines for stopping menstruation, she suffered
lumbar pains, swelling eyelids and discomforts over her whole
general body. She accepted checks in Apollo Hospital in India
and the results as follows: proteinuria (+), urine creatinine
2.14, Scr 1.9 mg/dl, BU 45 mg/dl. Type-B ultrasonic: left kidney
8.6 cm, right kidney 8cm. Her condition was diagnosed as chronic
renal failure. Her condition was alleviated after taking some
medicines. Two years ago, her condition became severe; she went
to the Royal Hospital in Oman for checks, and the results showed
that her blood sugar was higher than before. Her condition now
was diagnosed as advanced renal failure and type
¢̣diabetics.
The hospital gave her some medicine for treatment and advised
her to take hematodialysis and kidney transplant. The patient
refused to do mematodialysis. Because her plasma renin activity
(PRA) was positive, she did not take kidney transplant. At
present, her kidney activity was only 9%.
3. When the patient was
hospitalized in our hospital, she suffered cramps and pains over
her lumbar part; when she suffered pains, her whole body was on
fever. The patient sometimes had dizziness, chest depression,
fatigue, and pains over her costal region, swelling eyelids and
tinnitus. Her above symptoms aggravated if she overworked. She
did not feel dry in her mouth and she liked to drink cold water
with large amount. Her appetite and sleep were good. Urine was
yellowish. She did not suffer from night urination. Bowel
movements were 1-2 times per day.
4. T: 36.5¡ăC R: 20
times/minute P: 68 times/minute BP: 142/80 mmHg
5. Her spirit activity
was good. She was a little bit plump. She grew normally. The
patient could move normally. There were pressing pains over her
left
hypochondrium. Knocking-on the kidney areas caused
pains. There was no edema over her two lower limbs. Her tongue
was dark with petechia on the top. Her
tongue coating was yellowish and greasy. Her pulse was sunken,
thready and weak.
6. Other
tests: Chloride 109 mmol/L, Urea 13.5 mmol/L, Creatinine 247
umol/L (Mar. 20, 2010 in Oman)
Diagnostic Basis:
TCM:
The patient¡¯s lumbar pain, dizziness and tinnitus were due to
insufficiency of kidney essence and marrow sea deficiency. Long
duration of disease is leading to kidney qi instability and
refined nutritious substances going to lower part; therefore
proteinuria appeared. Swelling eyelids, chest depression, dark
stagnated tongue with petechia
on the top, yellowish tongue and greasy tongue coating, as well
as sunken, thready and weak pulse were due to stagnation of damp
toxin obstructing the channels in the body. So, his condition
could be diagnosed as kidney turbidity, which was due to
insufficiency of kidney qi and damp toxin stagnating and
obstructing the channels. In addition, the patient suffered
polydipsia, in combination with lab checks of higher blood
sugar, and then the patient at the same time suffered from
diabetics.
Western Medicine:
The patient suffered from lumbar pains and swelling eyelids,
accompanied by proteinuria for 6 years, and her condition became
severer in the recent 2 years. In addition, according to the
examination result from the hospital, her condition could be
diagnosed advanced renal failure and type¢̣diabetics.
Diagnostic Differentiation:
TCM: The patient's condition
should be differentiated with
stranguria marked by chyluria. Both
two diseases have lumbar pain, swelling eyelids, proteinuira,
but for
stranguria marked by chyluria,
the patient usually suffer more times of urination, stanguria
and obstructing feeling of urinating.
Therefore, it was easy to differentiate them.
Western Medicine: Her condition should
be differentiated from nephrotic syndrome. Both two diseases all
have lumbar pains, swelling eyelids, proteinuira, but for
nephortic syndrome, there are large quantity of proteinuria,
evident edema, hyperlipemia and hypoproteinemia. So, it was easy
to differentiate them.
First Diagnosis:
TCM:
Kidney turbidity and diabetes.
Symptom identification:
the insufficiency of kidney qi as well as damp toxin stagnating
and obstruction the channels.
Western Medicine: Chronic renal
failure and Type
¢̣
diabetics.
Treatment strategy and
nursing:
1. Routine care of
traditional Chinese internal medicine.
2. Grade
¢̣
care.
3. Companion.
4. Diet of low salt, low
fat, low sugar and low protein.
5. Pathogenesis: the

obstructing the channels.
6. TCM strategy:

and resolving toxin.
7. Herbal tea: one
dosage a day and drink twice

Mrs. Fatma Moosa Murad is 51 years
from Oman.
She is suffering from Kidneys
failure for the last seven year.
Her kidneys are shrinking day by
day and the last examination in Oman and Thailand she was told
that her Kidneys function is 9 to 10% only and she was told to
start have Kidneys dialysis.
She felt very badly to go all these
hassle of having Kidneys dialysis and Kidney transplant even
though one of her daughter she was willing to donor one of her
Kidney to her mother.
I started to convinced her eldest
daughter for TCM treatment and to come to Huai Hua-China.
It took several weeks till all the
family member to agreed cause TCM treatment was very new to them
and was not easy to accept.
We travel from Oman and reached
here on 22nd October 2011, and on 23rd October she went to
Military Hospital in Huai Hua to have full medical check, MRI,
EEG, Ultra Sound, Blood and Urine tests.
After receiving medical result we
found her BUN (Proteins), Creatinine and Urea were extremely
high some went near to 300%.
She started her TCM medical at Red
Cross hospital on the first day.
After 12 days on 3rd November she
went again to Military Hospital in Huai Hua to have Blood and
Urine test upon received the results we found there was a very
good progress cause BUN, Creatinine and Urea showed start to
come down and some came down on big scale.
If the result continue to come like
this I hope she should recovered at least few percentage in 3
months.
I hope Red Cross will try their
best to get best treat and hopefully she will be cure soon.
