Dear sir/madam, firstly u have not mentioned potassium valves. Treatment strategies depends on pottasium valve, drugs u take and diet. Cos certain drugs can increase pottasium, certain food items also can increase pottasium apart from renal failure. So kindly consult the physician/some other nephrologist with all relevant documents. Hope I find this informative.
