Diagnosed about 20 years ago, renal function still good but my waistline is expanding dramatically and the pressure on my stomach results in GERD. Haven't modified my diet too much but think I should start watching protein and caffeine.

Her Nephrologist never told her to give it up completely, but she has totally lost her taste for it. I thought that was interesting. She will probably start dialysis in the next few months. She's also gotten to the point where she can't even eat most fruit/veggies because her kidneys are functioning so low they can't process all the vitamins. I still haven't been tested for PKD but will when it comes time to get tested for her transplant.

Ummm....smooooooooothies.<BR/><BR/>Seriously, though, did he mention anything about a vitamin B supplement in addition to your veg? Admittedly, my knowledge is limited, but I do remember learning that you can't get some B vitamins when you only eat plants. (But maybe you can in cheese or eggs, hmmm...have to look that up.)<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I think it might be worth asking your nephrologist about on your next visit.<BR/><BR/>Also, I am curious as to what you had ordered for dinner and thus, what you were eating when he told you this.The Wizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18200774436938621900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30218415.post-10281720499803459092007-12-10T19:29:00.000-08:002007-12-10T19:29:00.000-08:00Yes, send them my way.
