Nephrologist: The most valuable thing that patients with kidney disease get to the hospital are not effective
What should a kidney patient go to the hospital? Not only is the condition improved
To go to the hospital for treatment, either to remove the uncomfortable feelings, or to return the abnormal numbers on the lab sheets to normal, or even to “spend money”.
However, for patients with chronic diseases such as kidney disease, the value of the hospital should not be limited to this.
Kidney disease is a chronic disease, and the course of illness is often more than ten years. Even though there are dangerous situations, it is very dull during such “long” periods.
Because of this, the role of the doctor in the treatment of kidney disease is less important.
After a cold, during the treatment week, you may see a doctor every day; but during the years of kidney disease treatment, the time spent meeting doctors is very small. Most of the time you are fighting for kidney disease.
In fact, not only kidney disease, but also other chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes.
In the fight against chronic diseases, you are the most important factor. Any idea or any choice you make will have an impact on the development of the disease.
In this situation, the doctors are regarded as supporting roles, and they are only required to appear when the disease changes drastically.
Therefore, as a patient with kidney disease, the purpose of each visit to the hospital can not only be limited to improving the condition, but more important is to make yourself more like a doctor.
As the saying goes, "Ill be a good doctor for a long time" is what this means.
But unfortunately, many of the patients with kidney disease I have met have experienced many years of treatment and have visited many hospitals. However, they still know little about kidney disease and are completely dependent on the command of doctors.
Without being able to get along with doctors, it is a dangerous thing to rely entirely on the doctor's command.
Someone has to ask, what should kidney patients learn? Those chaotic drug names can be a headache.
Don't bother with the name and role of those drugs. Just read the following two things:
1How does kidney disease come from?
The cause of kidney disease is currently inconclusive, and each hospital has its own version. From these arguments, we can see the starting point and focus of treatment.
2How is kidney disease treated?
According to the different understanding of kidney disease, everyone has different plans for the treatment of kidney disease.
Some tend to Western medicine, and some like Chinese and Western medicine.
By comparing various treatment options, we can find a hospital that suits them and spend less.
The more you know about the disease, the more calm your heart will be. Although this does not necessarily help the treatment, at least it will not accelerate the progression of the disease due to anxiety. It's like we don't take colds seriously because we're too familiar with it.
Therefore, do not be afraid to "interfere" the doctor. Any questions must be asked. What you feel must be said.
Until one day, you can discuss with the doctor about the treatment plan in order to truly achieve the doctor-patient cooperation in the treatment process, and not only as the existence of the doctor's trial and error.
