CKD patients weght problem present wt47
My neighbour(63-M)is a chronic Kidney/Diabetic/BP patient.His height is 5'2" & weight is 47Kg. His usual wt. was 52-53 Kg while he was not affected by those diseases so much. Now he's on dialysis Twice weekly. He is takes adequate renal diet as before dialysis .But he does not gain weight.Rather he loses weight day by day.The dietician advised him n egg without yolk twice a week but it does not work.Why it's so & What is 'ur advice to gain weight? His AV fistula is not improving after 3month
He is suffering from a chronic problem of a disease of a major organ which requires regular check up and maintenance of diet chart.weight gain is a slow process and depends on stage and conditions of the factors affecting the body.
Keep a regular consultation/evaluation with the dietician and nephrologist
