You sugar levels are higher than the required levels for pregnancy. It is called as gestational diabetes. Dietary changes are essential at this stage. If the levels do not reach the required targets within 2 weeks, your doctor will start medical treatment.

lybrate-user ji, Thanks for the query. The reference values for OGTT during pregnancy are like as shown:" According to these criteria the diagnosis of GDM is made if there is at least one abnormal value (≥92, 180 and 153 mg/dl for fasting, one-hour and two-hour plasma glucose concentration respectively), after a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT: From those it is clear that your OGTT values after 1 hour and 2 hours are higher, suggesting presence of GDM (Gestational diabetes). It is necessary to maintain glucose values between 90 to 120 mg through out the day, for having a healthy baby, to prevent large baby and to get the desired outcome of pregnancy. So there is a need for looking at your diet and also there may be a need for Insulin injections to achieve lower glucose levels, till the completion of pregnancy. Thanks.

I am 37 years old and I have the problem of acidic urine daily for the past 2years. If I drink lot of water I do not have the burning sensation. I am scared whether this problem of acidic urine is because of the fact that the kidney does not work.

Kidney stones are a very common health problem. They form from the chemicals in urine, such as uric acid, phosphorous, calcium and oxalic acid. Other common causes of kidney stones are excessive consumption of vitamin d, a mineral imbalance, dehydration, gout and an improper diet irrespective of the size of the kidney stones, they can cause severe pain. Other symptoms include a desire to urinate frequently, painful urination, nausea, vomiting and excessive sweating. Pomegranate both the seeds and juice of pomegranates have astringent properties that can help in the treatment of kidney stones? try to eat one whole pomegranate or drink one glass of freshly squeezed pomegranate juice daily. You can mix pomegranate in a fruit salad also. Another option is to grind one tablespoon of pomegranate seeds into a fine paste. Eat this paste along with a cup of horse gram soup once daily. This remedy will help dissolve the stones. Being high in fiber, kidney beans can be effective in the treatment of any kind of kidney or bladder problem, including kidney stones? remove the beans from inside the pods, then put the beans in hot water. Simmer the water on low flame for hours until the beans become soft and tender. Strain the liquid and allow it to cool. Strain the liquid again. Drink it several times throughout the day to relieve kidney stone pain. This liquid should not be kept for more than 24 hours, as it will lose its therapeutic properties? you can also eat kidney beans in soup or salad. To conclude, you can try any of these natural remedies for treating kidney stones ayurvedic medicines are neeri syrup and calcury syrup and vrikkdoshhar vati for more queries inform me.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Your kidneys play a key role in keeping your blood pressure in a healthy range. Diseased kidneys are less able to help regulate blood pressure. As a result, blood pressure increases. If you have ckd, high blood pressure makes it more likely that your kidney disease will get worse and you will have heart problems. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
