[QUOTE="Ushthetaff, post: 2427585, member: 429002"] After I lost my leg in 2014 I contracted sepsis which took my kidney function down to 1% I had dialysis for about 10 days I think , my kidney function has sat at about 30 % since that ! I attend renal clinic every 6 months , the only additional medication I take is Fusomide as I was already on blood pressure tabs . I attended the renal clinic about 6 weeks ago and they told me my function is at about 28%, i asked about it and they said dialysis would be done at about 8%, .they did say keeping blood pressure low was important , As far as any ill feeling I have had none , bit tired sometimes but I don’t really associate that with my kidneys I am very active I don’t drink much alcohol but I’m not TT, I eat healthily and drink plenty of water , to be honest I live every day as it’s my last and done worry about anything , because let’s face it worrying certainly doesn’t help any situation, I did hear that cooked beetroot is good for kidney function , well I know it does affect the kidneys as when I was younger and a beat of a wag I use to eat it before I gave a urine sample hehehe [/QUOTE]
