Patient's question:
What symptoms can confirm kidney dysfunction? My husband has been saying he's been dizzy and having headaches these past few days, can't sleep well at night, sometimes has stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Is this kidney dysfunction? Do we need to go to the hospital for further diagnosis?Doctor's answer:
Is there kidney insufficiency that requires careful urine tests and blood tests for kidney function to diagnose it? In most cases, early symptoms of kidney insufficiency reappear with systemic nausea and vomiting. If these symptoms reappear now, similar to dizziness and systemic symptoms, it is necessary to check for kidney insufficiency. If there is kidney failure and kidney insufficiency, early treatment is necessary, which can include dialysis treatment.
