Although I’ve asked about medication changes and dietary adjustments she’s done nothing but order an ultrasound of my kidneys which I’m having on the 29th. I’m looking for a nephrologist.
He did not prescribe any medications. He cut my existing medication of Hydrochlorothiazide down from 25 mg to 12.5 mg. He sent me to a dietician and I have made definite changes in my diet. Basically, I am leaning towards a vegan diet now--not completely but meat has been sharply cut; eggs, cheese, and fish in limited amounts; and my overall consumption of protein is much lower. I also try to be careful with the amount of sodium I take in. If I have more problems in the future, I am assuming he would consider meds at that point.
