My father aged 60 have sugar and BP. Now recently 4 days back he got bp of 210. Now he is hospitalised. Presently BP and sugar is normal. Blood urea is 109 mg/dl. S.Creatinine is 6.9 mg/dl. Sodium 126 mmol/L, potassium 3.5 mmol/L, Chloride 99 mmol/L. This is todays report. But yesterday S.Creatinine was 7 and 4 days back it was 4.3. As of now compared to yesterday creatinine is decreasing. Here doctors are suggesting for dialysis is this necessary. As we consulted other doctor they are saying dialysis is not required at this stage. Please suggest me. What to do should we take him for Bangalore.

Hello, it is difficult give an opinion from a distance regarding such acute conditions. However, if bp is near normal and blood glucose also in good contro, then by giving adequate fluid intake electrolytes can be managed. Same is the case with urea and creatinine. Best is to abide by the on the spot clinical expert, who can be the best judge. It may best to shift to a better equipped hospital as in bangalore. Still I suggest go by your attending physician's advice. Thanks. L.
