It has pipped the bacteria and viruses at the post but what has been a greater challenge in the ensuing times is that the chronic illnesses continue to hold sway and greatly influence the health and quality of human life. Homeopathic medicine has risen to the challenge and has found a reasonable answer for many illness and even more effective when applied judiciously as a complementary medicine. Amongst them is Diabetes and the complications that it can produce; one of them being Diabetic nephropathy.
Diabetes is a condition in which the blood sugar tends to pile up in the blood circulation, as the carriers find themselves unable to cross the barrier into the cell.
This condition is dangerous because even as it leaves the cells with deficient energy it also causes the excessive blood sugar levels to affect other metabolism of the body. The primary amongst them is the kidney function and the deleterious effect it causes on it is called as diabetic nephropathy or in simple words kidney failure due to diabetes mellitus.
The effective portion of the kidney is called as the nephron and it is embedded in the rich supply of blood vessels called as glomerulus and the increased blood sugar levels leave them thickened and scarred and over a period of time this ensuing degeneration strikes a rich portion of the kidney. When the kidney does not work at its efficiency it causes the vital body building units of the body i.e. the proteins to seep through.
As the disease sweeps over the body there is a general fatigue, swelling of the legs, foamy appearance of urine, fatigue, generalised ill feeling, poor appetite, hiccups and unintentional weight gain. Investigations would reveal that the haemoglobin levels coming down, creatinine levels go up as the tissues of the kidneys are gradually degeneration and the persistent presence of albumin in the urine. Blood pressure usually increases causing further burden and the electrolyte imbalance causing further weakness etc. The biggest challenge at this point of time would be to prevent end stage kidney failure.
Homoeopathic Medicine has remedies to work in this problem at various stages of the disease. Whether it is the diabetes which is the primary culprit as it remains silent until it causes some damaging changes in the important organs of the body or the secondary changes in the kidney, these remedies have a positive impact. Whether it is the group of remedies that prevent thickening and scarring of the blood vessels like Plumbum met, Baryta mur etc., or the medicines like Syzygium, Gymnema, Cephalandra etc., or even the organ influencing drugs like Solidago, Boerrhavia, Sulph, Calc carb etc., these medicines can be used efficiently at various stages of the disease and always ahead of the expected prognosis of the known illness.
