I’d love to have oatmeal as an option, but until I see a nephrologist, it appears on the limit/avoid list everywhere I look. I am grateful for summer blueberries and cherries, but winter will be ALL apples! I will have to check out rsnhope.org.

It is correct to consult your neph doc regarding oatmeal. But as I mentioned in a previous post I'm not sure potassium is a problem unless you are stage V and your kidneys are not clearing potassium and phosphorus. The reason oatmeal is on the list is due to high potassium and I'm not sure that would affect you (based on what I have read so far). By the way, even though my GFR is 17 my kidney problem is they do not clear urea. They clear potassium and phosphorus with no problem. My labs have always been in the range for both of those.
