You may need surgery for a diabetes complication or, you may need surgery for a medical problem that is unrelated to your diabetes. Your diabetes may increase your risk for problems during or after your surgery, such as:

a) Infection after surgery (especially at the site of the surgery)
b) Healing more slowly
 c) Fluid, electrolyte, and kidney problems
d) Heart related complications

If you have diabetes, you may or may not experience kidney disease. But, it’s always a good idea to closely monitor the health of your kidneys. You’re more likely to experience problems if you have high blood pressure, trouble controlling your blood glucose and a family history of kidney disease. With good blood glucose levels and regular check-ups, kidney issues are greatly reduced.
 
If you have diabetes, it’s important to get regular urine and blood tests. These routine screenings will help detect a protein called albumin in your urine. Screenings can also find a substance called creatinine in your blood if your kidneys are not working well.
 
In the early stages of kidney disease, people often don’t experience symptoms. Later stage symptoms can include poor sleep, lack of appetite, upset stomach, and more.  That’s why it’s so important to get regular tests, no matter how you’re feeling. Specialists at our centre can help in this regards. Our team will guide you through treatment and care, working to prevent major kidney complications.
 
The most important treatment for kidney disease is prevention. This involves closely monitoring blood glucose levels and blood pressure before they weaken the kidneys.
Our specialists might also recommend:

  1. Medications to lower blood pressure recommending the safest doses based on you kidney function
  2. Medications aimed at protecting kidney function specific for each individual.
  3. Advice on fluid management, especially if you are prescribed diuretics or glucose lowering medications which act as diuretics
  4. Dietary changes as needed for your level of kidney function
  5. Changing medication doses to be sure they are properly dosed for your level of kidney function
  6. Dialysis to treat kidney failure
