Nephrotic Syndrome

[yasinnajib]

hello all.
My name is Yasin .I was first diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome at the age of four . Now at the age of 20 the same symptoms started to appear which was confirmed by the doctor as nephrotic syndrome.

pls do tell me if this is normal or due to some external stimuli ; there are days when i put my body to extreme strain often going without any sleep for periods upto 72 hours with the aid of drugs such as modafinil and excess cofee.

Hey, im 14 [ September 1995 ] and I just had nephrotic syndrome around June i think. Taken preds for 3months. It came back after a month. now continue taking preds for 4months [ still on the 2nd month ]. When im 13, last year i stayed up late 3am everyday and wake up 7 to go school. I did this for a long time, around half the year. Now just living trying to live healthy.

how nice of you to reply to the post,
anyway...did you say that the onset of proteinuria was mainly due to the fact that you stayed up long nights? or is this what you assumed? pls let me know.
