As for kidney disease, most patients are chronically ill, and a visit to the doctor is far from a specialist number.
Because of the chaos of medical treatment in China and the lack of national medical knowledge, many chronic kidney disease patients, except for a few, have taken a lot of detours, and there are patients who have paid a terrible price for these detours.
Before an ordinary kidney disease patient never had the concept of chronic kidney disease, his general consciousness is that this disease is terminal, but if associated with this disease, it is tantamount to a death sentence, and not a death sentence but for life.
If the doctor doesn't say anything, then search yourself. The first time I searched, I was either scared out of my wits by those "so-called medical science", or I was fooled by all kinds of fraudulent doctors and hospitals; and then I went to various forums and asked the netizens who didn't know anything about medicine. They are all basically dead in the water and have no love for life.
When you go to the doctor with this kind of mentality, the result can be imagined.
Either you run away, or you do everything you can to find a doctor who can cure you. Or take the knowledge you find online and the rumors you hear from relatives and friends and go around questioning and disobeying the advice of regular doctors.
In fact, the development of chronic kidney disease, except for a few cases, is a long and stable process, and effective control can delay the majority of patients into dialysis for life.
During this long process, even with the most formal and standardized treatment, drug ineffectiveness, relapse, and fluctuation can occur. Coupled with the patient's understanding and implementation of medical advice during the treatment process.
These undoubtedly test the doctor, but also the patients themselves. If patients do not have a good mindset and some basic medical knowledge, they will never be able to cooperate with doctors to get the best treatment results.
100 patients want to hear that one of them is doing wonders with a certain medicine, then the other 99 will want to try it;
One of the 100 patients needs to hear about the progress of renal function, and the other 99 will have to stand against the wall.
But the clinical manifestations of each individual are different, for example, some have persistent proteinuria, some have low proteinuria, some have high blood pressure, some have low blood pressure;
The pathology is also different, some have mild lesions, some have IgA nephropathy, and what's more, the severity of the lesions is not the same even if they are the same type of pathology;
But the individual's response to the medication is different, and the course of treatment is differ, and the timing of detection is also early or late.
These all affect the regression of the disease.
There is no systematic and comprehensive judgment, just one or two indicators, how other people are doing, how they feel; just see what drugs other people are taking, you have to try what drugs too. How to do this? Discriminatory learning is still needed.
Chronic kidney disease, all our efforts are to protect renal function in the long term and slow down the progression of renal function. This requires us to have a long-term vision: standardized treatment, regular follow-up, and a positive attitude toward life and disease.
Besides death, chronic kidney disease is not enough to get our kidney friends down.
Nightfall, the lights, the major hospital clinics have closed, but the vendors outside the clinic door stalls, square dancing amazons, overnight queuing up for registration, but the gesture is just right, bustling, vibrant, we continue to experience.
I used to think how life could be like this, but now I realize that problems can appear minute by minute. No matter what, never give up on an exercise so easily.
