Promises of improved kidney function?

I want to comment that I was able to improve my GFR and Creatinine after just 3 months with an accomplished Acupuncurist and Chinese herbs. My creatinine was 1.14 and my GFR 45. I improved these numbers to 1.0 and 55 respectively. I have been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease in the last 2 years. Using acupuncture and long term Chinese therapy has been known to improve kidney function. I can only comment on my progress ( which I’m really pleased about) after only 3 months. That was the only thing I changed (I also improved my Potassium by following a low K diet. This approach is long term. I plan to continue with this into the future.

By low potassium, did you go vegan?

How did you find Acupuncturist and know which herbs to take

We should also keep in mind that if you take your GFR test 3 times at 3 different labs in the same day it would NOT be unusual to get very different scores (e.g., 52, 47, 61). The number means far less than the trend of your GFR scores over time. Be very careful before you assume your score has actually changed and before you attribute a random fluctuation in score to a specific treatment that does not have actual research from a refereed journal behind it.

What is the Chinese therapy that improved your creatinine and GFR?
