[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2517275, member: 196898"] OK, Just getting ready for my annual checkup. Had some bloods done a few weeks back and my eGFR was 32 so Stage 3c I believe. Had my diabetic meds last week, and my eGFR is now 44. So what changed? Well I started taking Bitter Melon to replace the Metformin that I had recently given up. Also on the day I met the vampire, I did not eat anything, but had my normal copious cups of coffee to give my water pills something to work on, Seems one of those might have helped me. PS the review is looking good. HbA1c = 46. BMI = 21.9, and cholesterol in the low ish end of the spectrum. Red Blood Count is fine, and most of the blood panel looking good. Feet still attached and ticklish I will discuss halving my iron supplement since I have been on a high dose for some time now, and could probably extrude a 6" nail if I was able to. I am not convinced that the study we discussed earlier is viable, but excess iron can be toxic and my anemia seems to have cleared up. [/QUOTE]
