Nephrologist,  's  Response
Firstly I would like to correct that it is 11.1 mg /dl of se.creatinine and not 111.
If the se.creatinine levels or this elevated for a long time and is asypmtomatic I suggest to have an AV FISTULA created at the earliest . She may land up any time in uremic seizures , her bones will be brittle n prone to fractures , she would be having loss of appetite and muscle catabolism due to chronic acidosis.
Regarding diet absolute vegetarian diets low in potassium.
Avoid fruit juices and fruits especially banana , water melon ...Can have small bites of apple , guava and popaya.

BUT GET FISTULA DONE EMERGENTLY COZ IT TAKES 6 WEEKS FOR IT TO MATURE AND ANY EMERGENCY DURING THIS PERIOD SHE WILL HAVE TO TAKE EMERGENCY DIALYSIS WITH IJV ACCESS WHICH IS PRONE TO CONPLIACTIONS OF INFECTIONS.
