Any Natural Way To Improve Kidney Function And Avoid Dialysis?
Good Day ,
I am Diabetic , with High Blood Pressure , Since a year my Kidneys started to get weaker , I was prescribed a Diuretic to release the Water from the Body (that caused edema in the Legs , Stomach , Back , around the Ankle , the Wrist , ....with recurrence a month ago ) , Since I was prescribed the High Dose of Diuretic (between 3 to 5 mg a day "Bumenatide") , My Creatinine Level increased from 2.1 to 4.1, Urine Microalbumin (Spot) from 3000 to 4100 .
Please advise if there is a natural way to improve my kidneys function and to avoid dialysis and reverse back my Kidney health to somehow normal
Thank you

Hi,
Since your disease has progressed to an advanced stage,hence at this stage it will certainly require treatment with drugs.
But diuretics can certainly be minimised or avoided if you bring down salt intake to 3-4gms daily.
Other drug therapy can be decided based on your latest test reports
