Diet in CRF: Great question.  There are many and I would ask that you go to either http://www.davita.com/kidney-disease/diet-and-nutrition/lifestyle/top-15-healthy-foods-for-people-with-kidney-disease/e/5347 or https://www.kidney.org/nutrition.  I would recommend you talk to your doctor about all of this.  There are foods that you should avoid and these resources will tell you what they are.

Question 4

can herpes cause renal failure?

Accepted Answer

Have not seen that: I have not seen herpes cause renal failure, but sometimes strange things can happen to an unlucky person with any disease. The medications to treat herpes, such as Acyclovir and valtrex, (valacyclovir) can cause renal failure if a patient already has decreased renal function, is taking large doses of the anti-virals, or is taking other medications (that also affect the kidneys) at the same time.

Question 5

renal failure common with diabetes?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Diabetes is the most common cause of permanent kidney failure in most of the world. 40-50% of patients with diabetes will be affected by this complication. 
Diabetes also increases the risk of acute kidney injury, particularly following x-rays using intravenous contrast.

Question 6

what causes itching in renal failure?

Accepted Answer

Increase urea levels: The kidneys are the cleansing organs through which all the blood flows in and dangerous by products of the body are filtered and removed through the urine. Everything the body needs is returned to the blood from the kidneys. As the kidneys fail, a protein breakdown product called urea builds up, and when high enough builds up in the skin causing itching. Transplant and/or dialysis may follow.

Question 7

can renal failure present with polyurea?

Accepted Answer

Urine Volume: Your question is can someone who is on dialysis have lots of urine still (polyuria).  The clearance of toxins and water functions of the kidney are different.  One can require dialysis because of the lack of toxin clearance, but still clear water and appear to be voiding normally.  Patients on dialysis eventually lose the ability to clear water as well.

Question 8

how does dehydration affect renal failure?

Accepted Answer

Usually worsens it: Dehydration leads to less perfusion or bllod flow to the kidneys and can make kidney failure worse.

Question 9

if untreated can herpes cause renal failure?

Accepted Answer

Doubt it: Herpes can do some odd things, but i've not encountered renal failure from it. People w/genital herpes may choose not to treat it, either because they don't have symptoms or because their symptoms are so mild. For most of the 50 million americans with genital herpes, the infection is an annoyance, and can be emotionally or socially bothersome, but is rarely a serious infection.

Question 10

can someone with renal failure have spirulina?

Accepted Answer

May be helpful but..: Little research has been done on this. Studies on rats suggest that spirulina protects kidneys from various toxins such as mercury & the drug cisplatin. On the other hand, there is evidence that spirulina can sometimes worsen autoimmune disease, so one should be cautious if the cause is autoimmune. There are other useful supplements for renal failure including cordyceps and coq10. See comments:.
