Interstitial Cystitis of the Bladder Besides pain and burning, patients often feel an urgency to void and urinate very frequently in small amounts, have pelvic pressure with sitting, and experience pain with sex which may persist for days afterwards. Honeymoon Cystitis A urinary tract infection can be caused by irritation of the urethra (the passage where urine comes out) during penetration and intercourse. The result is a bladder infection and significant inflammation of the urethra that is the primary source of pain with sex. Swollen Feet Have Many Potential Causes There are several causes of pedal edema including venous stasis, congestive heart failure, malnutrition, or kidney failure mediated through low protein in the blood. Control X for Urinary Incontinence Most of the ingredients in Control X are thought to stabilize renal function and regulate water passage. However, not all of these supplements have hard scientific evidence to support these claims.

7. Canine Kidney Disease Extensive article provides details about how the kidney functions and fails. Learn about different diseases and how they affect the organ. http://www.cah.com/library/caninekidney.html

Canine Kidney Disease Canine Kidney Disease The kidney (fig. normal kidney ultrasound kidney Let us picture the kidneys filtering mechanism. There are tens of thousands of microscopic funnel shaped tubes called nephrons. These tiny structures are responsible for filtering and reabsorbing the fluids that balance the body. These nephrons are susceptible to damage due to many causes such as poisons, aging, infection, trauma, cancer, auto-immune diseases, and genetic predisposition. If any of these occur the entire nephron stops functioning. Fortunately, due to both the reserve capacity of the kidney and the ability of the nephrons to grow larger, the kidney can still function. If damage to nephrons occurs gradually and the surviving nephrons have enough time to hypertrophy, a kidney can continue to function with as few as 25 percent of its original nephrons. When the number of functioning nephrons drops below 25 percent or when damage occurs too suddenly for the remaining nephrons to compensate, kidney failure occurs. There are two types of kidney failure. Acute kidney failure is a sudden loss of function that is sometimes but not always reversible. Chronic kidney failure is an irreversible loss of function that occurs gradually over months or years. Initial test results can be remarkably similar for both forms of kidney failure. The diagnostic challenge is to determine whether the dog has acute or chronic kidney failure. Making the distinction between chronic and acute failure is crucial because the prognosis and duration of treatment for the two types of kidney disease are different (although some treatment procedures may be similar). At our practices, we recommend yearly base line lab testing starting at age 3. This protocol allows us to help determine if we are dealing with acute or chronic disease.

15. Kidney Disease In Dogs kidney diseases in dogs juvenile, familial, and chronic. Information on symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, genetics and research. List of breeds which have genetic renal diseases. http://www.geocities.com/Vienna/Opera/2167/

Kidney Disease in Dogs George 20 April 1988- 27 January 1990 Juvenile renal disease and other familial and congenital renal diseases are seen in more than thirty breeds of dogs. Twenty two of these breeds have a renal dysplasia which is similar to that seen in Standard Poodles. I have put an (RD) for renal dysplasia after their breed names. Even in breeds with the same type of JRD, such as renal dysplasia, the modes of inheritance can be different. Ages at onset of symptoms can vary from a few weeks (Cairn terriers) to 5 - 11 years (German Shepherds, Welsh Corgis, Beagles). Modes of inheritance can vary from X linked dominant (Samoyed) to autosomal recessive (Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier, Cairn Terrier, Shih-Tzu), autosomal dominant (Bull Terrier), to unknown familial (most of the others). The following breeds are some of those in which familial and other renal diseases are seen: Airedale Terriers (RD) Alaskan Malamutes (RD) Basenjis (Fanconi-like syndrome) Bedlington Terriers (RD) Boxers (RD) Bulldogs (RD) Bull Terriers (glomerulopathy) Cairn Terriers (polycystic kidneys) Chinese Shar-Pei (amyloidosis) Chow Chows (RD) Cocker Spaniels (glomerulopathy) Collies (glomerulopathy) Doberman Pinschers (unilateral agenesis and glomerulopathy) Golden Retrievers (RD) Great Danes (RD) Great Pyrenees (RD) Irish Wolfhounds (RD) Keeshonds (RD) King Charles Spaniels (RD) Lhasa Apso (RD) Miniature Poodles (polycystic kidneys) Miniature Schnauzers (RD and Fanconi-like syndrome) Newfoundlands (glomerulopathy) Norwegian Elkhounds (tubulointerstitial nephropathy and Fanconi-like syndrome
