[QUOTE="whompa73, post: 429299, member: 79538"] Have been put on ace inhibitors . So just building up the dose at mo . I am also new to diabetes so low carbing which means relativly high in protein and dairy. I have brought my bgd down but am nervous about going to a more normal diet as my bgs are far lower but doc still wants them ddown becauee of kidneys . I am at the limit he said he will prescribe for metformin and I am also exercising . My fear is if I go back to carbs that my bgs will creep up ( I am ultra low carb 5/15 grams per day ) I am not keen on going on the pills that force your pancreas to produce more/excess insulin as I beleive they have a verry high potential to distroy the pancreas' s ability to produce insulin. And the thought of taking insulin its self is the thing of nightmares and would cost me my livelyhood. I do also take 30/500 co-codamol for a accident several years ago. And I still dont know which is the more imediat threat the diabetes or the kidneys . Should I be eating to help kidneys and taking extra meds even though I dont want to for the diabetes. Or stay the course I am on as the diabetes is a major contributor to the ckd. Very confused and still dont knowmif I should be calling it kidney disese of mot. And aalthough the kidny function is not too bad yet . I have not seen what the figure for the proteins was yet but going of the appithy my dr usually shows and how seriously he is taking this i'm guessing it was alarmingly high. Just wish I had the facts and new exactially what to call it [/QUOTE]
