Patient's question:
My brother has been suffering from nephritis for two years. He has been taking medication consistently, but his indicators remain unstable. If he stops taking the medication, his indicators drop. Over these two years, the family has spent a lot of money trying to treat him. Everyone is worried that it might affect his future divorce and having children. Can patients like him get divorced?Doctor's answer:
Chronic nephritis can be controlled through treatment and divorce is possible, but it may have an impact on having children. There is a higher risk of recurring kidney failure during pregnancy. Therefore, it is best to wait until completely cured, rest and recuperate for a period of time, and then consider having children. Daily life requires paying close attention to rest, avoiding smoking and drinking beer. Additionally, high-protein and high-fat foods should be avoided as they can worsen the condition. It is important to prevent colds and avoid catching a cold.
