Dear
Are we considering for dialysis as indication are quite suggestive.More over we should concentrate on a renal as well as diebetic diet.
A balance of protein and carbohydrate requited with vitamins.
However to do away with the pleural effusion please get a detail opinion of the treating physician.Hospitalisation and treatment is the best option also for proper dietary planning as there are possibility for a deranged electrolytes.
Hope this helps
