fish,chicken[except skin and liver and other organs],lean meat,milk,egg white are all okay, but the amount should be limited depending on your kidney function.

If you had all the symptoms of acute renal failure listed on Web MD, but none of them were all that bad, and you felt pretty much normal would you go to the Emergency room, wait and make a doctors appointment, or just chalk it up to being overly sensitive and a hypochondriac? acute renal failure symptoms

I live in Lakeland, Florida my father has kidney failure he has been on dialyis for two years now which now he is at the ESRD...End stage of renal disease..that is the white lining developes around the kidney and draws up to nothing,no longer functioning.It is a proving fact that the FDA states the three kinds of medication to produce red blood cells is very dangerous and has caused alot of deaths NOTE:IF YOU HAVE HYPERTENION, DO NOT TAKE MEDICATION...Now what do you do for red blood cells???Kidney patients are not surpose to get blood trans..my father has to get blood trans quite often and now he has congested heart failture,which is from the medication to produce red blood cells or blood trans or BOTH...Is this a catch 22 situation??? My Question is..I know there are other things to produce red blood cells.I need to know what they are..I have heard that some steriods produce red cells..Your red cell count is surpose to read 13 to 14 count i believe..last month my fathers got down to 6.9!!!and more fluid developes around the heart...This is terrible..I pray every day for those you have kidney failture I watch what my father goes through..I hope i didnt effect anyone in a bad way with what i had to say in this comment box..Thank You and GOD BLESS...Tammy Hamann............
