@abrunslori I take a blood pressure medication to keep my BP in good range, as that is important to not stress the kidneys. Also, a diuretic [furosemide] every day or every other day as I see fit. And I take a medication for gout, to keep my uric aid from building up. I follow a careful renal diet [limit protein, no dairy, low-to-no potassium, low phosphorus, no purines because of the gout, low sodium]. I limit my sugary foods. Exercise as my knee will allow me, usually walking. No steroids for me, if possible, because diabetes runs in my family and I do not want medical-induced diabetes.
