I want to know, is it possible for everything to get reversed and I'm very afraid that I might need dialysis.For how long can I avoid dialysis? What should be my diet? And what else I need to do to lower the risk of CKD?

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can fully understand your concern.
I must be able to see your last reports of blood creatinine, sugar, uric acid, sodium, potassium, ultrasound scan, urine micro-albumin, 24 hours urine protein, GFR, or creatinine clearance, and kidney biopsy, if done.
You can send these reports to me as a direct question, and i shall be able to give you an expert opinion. Avoiding potassium rich foods is a must.
Your B.P. must always be in control. Never miss the medication.
