What is the FSGS prognosis?

People who receive treatment earlier usually have a better prognosis.

How to improve FSGS prognosis?
Since FSGS prognosis is changeable and can be affected by many factors, there is a way to improve FSGS prognosis. For patients living with FSGS, an effective improvement of prognosis not only allows them to live longer, but also helps to improve their life quality. With FSGS, the following measures are generally needed to improve prognosis:
1. Bring all the symptoms like proteinuria, swelling, hypoproteinemia and hyperlipemia under control, which is necessary for slowing down illness progression.
2. Protect residual kidney function. FSGS progresses when more and more kidney tissues are injured and fail to function properly. Also, FSGS prognosis becomes poorer and poorer. Therefore, protecting residual kidney function is also essential for FSGS patients to improve their prognosis.
3. Arrange a reasonable diet. A well-planed diet can not cure FSGS, but it helps to reduce kidney burden and this is very beneficial for FSGS patients.
4. Kick bad living habits. Bad living habits like smoking, drinking alcohol and staying up all the night affect one’s physical condition directly. For one with FSGS, if he has developed bad habits, kick them as soon as possible, otherwise, their illness condition is worsened easily.
The above several measures are important for FSGS patients to improve their prognosis. If there is anything unclear or you have more questions, please feel free to contact us: kidney-treatment@hotmail.com.
