I agree with those above with cbd helping pain. Be patient it can take over a month to see benefit.
As far as keto with intermittent fasting works much faster. By the end of week you’ll have less pain and more energy. High protein with kidney disease could be a potential problem. I have a high creatinine and BUN and it hasn’t changed since starting diet year ago. Feel much better on diet, more energy, not hungry. Be sure to drink lots of water on this diet if you have kidney disease. Wouldn’t hurt to run by your doctor. My doctor was happy with it. Was hospitalized recently and off diet and could feel a difference. Good luck.
