Thank you so much for replying back. Your input as another person going through CDK3 is very helpful. I can't thank you enough. Doctors here in the US just give you a template of veggies, fruits and water intake but don't go to details. For example someone here was mentioning soup. It is good to have actual everyday people's menu that they make for breakfast, lunch and dinner, so I can get my mom excited about meals and not demoralize her. She has the renal dietician appointment coming up of course too. I have been as per nephrologists instructions serving her 1 egg in the morning with veggies and a strip of chicken cutlet. Lunch: Chicken cutlet or salmon and broiled string beans and carrots and cucumber. Dinner: yogurt with zucchini. The doctor was trying to have her take Forxiga which works almost like a diuretic to flush out all bad sugar. I am not sure that that will work out because my mom is drinking 6-8 glasses a water a day and using the restroom constantly. That will have her blood sugar drop I am sure too. her blood sugar runs normal now. Did your doctor change you to a different medication or just only took you off Triamentrene?
Thank you so much! You have been extremely helpful.
