Baka kasi ndi URO ang kailangan mo ... if it would be a more specific concern ... kung complicated UTI ang problem all you need to consult are IMs ... or you could probably see an Gynecologist usually at that level adressed na ang problem for women

Good day!

 

Mga doctors ng MTC, ask ko lang what is streptococcal gentonephritis? my sister was diagnosed with this. Our worry is that our mother has kidney failure. Magkaparehas ba sila?

 

If not, what is the probability that streptococcal gentonephritis would end up with renal failure?

 

Thanks

 

 

you are probably referring to post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis, which is basically an infection of the kidneys by Streptococcus, which happens approximately 1-4 weeks following an infection of the pharynx or skin.

 

there are two trains of thought here.. in general, 95% of affected children recover totally while in adults, the disease is less benign, meaning the clinical course can become difficult to manage.

There is one who is connected to PGH. Give PGH a call and ask to be connected to the office of the Division of Urology and you can make inquiries there.

Sir peterparker,

 

Thanks sa reply..

 

Follow up lang, when you say less benign and the clinical course is difficult to manage, does it mean hindi dangerous? Please ellaborate.

 

Salamat po

simply put, it means that in adults affected by GN, the clinical course and symptoms are more difficult to treat compared to pediatric patients.. so yes it can become dangerous and problematic.

Inquiry po.. my wife has been experiencing numbness in the left arm and hand, with occasional throbbing pain, and lately in the right arm and hand. No persistent pain daw, just "manhid" and "nanlalamig". From what I read, symptoms point to angina. She's deathly afraid of doctors and can't convince her to undergo checkup because she says doctors only prescribe meds which she believes only complicate things. She's Ilocano, 57 y/o, the traditional fruits and veggies eater and not a junk food junkie, though has occasional bouts with excessive uric acid due to peanuts.

 

Your thoughts on this please? Thanks!

your wife is most probably experiencing symptoms related to a cardiovascular disorder, so it would be wise to have your wife checked out..

 

an executive check-up is your best option, since all the necessary tests will be performed in order to evaluate the problem AND determine the proper course of action.

Agree with peterparker.

Aside from that posted above, another consideration would be neurologic in nature: carpal tunnel syndrome or radiculopathic symptoms secondary to cervical root impingement.

A visit to a doctor will help in identifying properly the nature of her ailment and alleviating her problems.
