I don’t believe cucumbers, blueberries and strawberries are high in oxylates. I use a list from the University of Chicago that has helped me go from stage 4 (GFR of 16) to stage 3b (GFR of 36). Best wishes.
From the info I was given, you need to also add carrots and chocolate to your list.
Be careful with what you eat. I lost a kidney due to a huge 7x11 stone that shredded my ureter tube when it tried to leave my kidney. I spent 9 months trying to save my kidney. But it had to be removed after all the trouble I went thru.
I was lucky enough to be able to see a wonderful Dr. at Mayo in Jacksonville FL. Cannot say enough wonderful things about Mayo Clinic. Had Cancer surgery a few years later at same Mayo Clinic. Totally different problem, nothing to do with kidneys . Dr and staff were so friendly and helpful. I recommend Mayo to everyone!
