Thank you for your reply. This is very helpful. My nephrologist feels that 1.5L of water a day is good and I will be sure to remain diligent. In addition, I plan to continue in my diligence with diet (all fresh foods, limited preservatives, high quality proteins) and exercise in an effort to stay away from dialysis.

@goldsba Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Each patient is slightly different, even though we share the same diagnosis of Chronic Kidney Disease. It is important for us each to honor ourselves, to take the best care we can. Reading what works for others is important education! Good for you in following a healthy diet, and exercise! Keeping track of your labwork trends and communicating with your nephrologist is great.

When we take charge of our health, it is amazing how we can delay future issues or change our well-being to more positive.
