Stage 3 Kidney Disease and Diet: What can I eat?

Thank you for your kind words. I see that I have a lot to learn about CKD and I'm glad to be here and learning from friends so much that I'm taking notes to help as I try to figure this out. My creatinine went to 1.70 with my 3/24 lab. Seeing that you are aware of your trend tells me charting my pertinent numbers will be helpful. I hope you don't mind my asking, how did your kidney damage being caused by oxalates come to light? My cause right now is unknown, my doctor said, but I'm not sure why. But that's definitely a question for him. And because I showed concern at my virtual visit last week, he's having me follow up with lab in a month. So I'll start to track my numbers. Thanks again and blessings to you.

@ausie I learned the cause of my kidney damage from the Renal Department tests once I was referred for a kidney transplant. It was among the tests they ran. Whether you were tested for this or what the cause of your kidney disease is would be a question for your medical group. Letting them know that you are talking to other people with Kidney disease may encourage them to be more open with you and more diligent with finding your cause. In my opinion it is difficult to treat a problem without knowing the cause of the problem. Sometimes doctors will not go into details unless they are made aware that you want details and can handle the knowledge. Blessings.
