Restricting my ever stricter diet now by using Ketoanalogues
I will not be eating much protein now but I will try to use Ketoanalogues soon to incorporate in my diet. So what are Ketoanalogues, they are the nitrogen-free amino acids, building blocks of protein that are easily absorbed by the body. My aim to include them in my new diet is to prevent myself from being deficient for my protein consumption which just raises my blood's urea, nitrogen, and creatinine because my dialysis center is not cleaning my blood that well. My doctor seems to be not that focused in lowering these things most probably because of my bouts of hypotension episodes during my treatment sessions.
That complication gets reported to my Nephrologist by my nurses when she visits the clinic so she would instruct the nurses to do such things such as putting me in a frequent dialysis during the times that I was just going two times per week which I refused because of having no budget for it until we got a totally free sessions from of our government health insurance system. My Nephrologist also had instructed to make me use low flux dialyzer and a slow blood pump during my treatment session which I also refused because it will just not clean my blood better.
However, my nurses of course had made a way to do just that and now I can feel the result, my blood is just not cleaned well unlike before. What's the result? my blood always as elevated urea, nitrogen, and creatinine. So now I must sacrifice my food enjoyment by cutting back much protein in my diet. I also have to keep in mind not to eat high phosphorus and potassium food items because they are also not cleaned-out well from my body.
Basically I will adjust from my doctor's nurse's way of cleaning out my blood out of necessity so that I can be able to feel better in-between dialysis sessions otherwise I will feel ill and risk myself with hospitalization which I want to avoid because of course it will cost me money considering that it is hard to earn money and it will also affect my plans that needs money basically.
One hard thing is to restrict my fluid consumption considering that I am not liberal for consuming it in the first place for the reason that my body is literally have not much room for adding extra fluids because of what happened to my vertebra. The sideways curvature and thus forming an "S" shaped backbone squeezed my lungs so effectively that my lung capacity is like less than one cup now. It just means that I would get easily breathless if I would make an exertion like walking for just a few meters from my room much less doing any activity that requires body movements. So I have to make it a point not to exacerbate my lung issue with regards to its capacity by not consuming the space in my torso by consuming much fluids more than beyond my physical capacity otherwise again, I will also have the risk of experiencing hypotension because things really had changed a lot in my body physically and the former things cannot be done anymore like being so liberal about my fluid consumption and it is a harder aspect of my life now that I have to contend within order to give my body a favor for my own benefit of a better well-being which is hard to get now more than ever, so becaus eof that the struggle had been more real.
Anyway, there are cheaper Ketoanalogues in the online store or market today and they are made in India which is known to sell competitive prices of medicines because there are so many drug manufactures in India and it results in a much cheaper medicines with the same quality compared to other well-known brands unlike here in my country which also imports medicines particularly from those multinational drug companies which is why medicines that unfortunately most doctors prescribe are much expensive here and push to be bought by patients compared to the medicines coming from India. That is also why my government imports medicines from India for government hospital use while the private drugstores doesn't do that because they do not care about things being cheap for the public consumption and just concentrated about the availability of the medicines regardless of its price not favoring the pockets of the public, well I guess it is because the reason of business.
But it is a great thing that there are online stores that I can go to in order to purchase some medicines that I needed that doesn't require prescription (I guess) since some of what I need are just supplements like vitamins and minerals and I have to also find out if the online store that I am about to order from will require me to pass or send then a copy of prescription with the Ketoanalogue that I plan to buy this week so that I can be able to go to do my low protein diet without depriving my body of basic amino acid that my body needs so that I can keep my urea/nitrogen levels in check which is always high all through these years thanks to the mild dialysis that I get from my current dialysis clinic to my regret and frustration.
