[QUOTE="DJC3, post: 2443949, member: 468536"] Thank you so much for posting this, it has taken a load off my mind and made me feel a lot more comfortable with my instinctive choice of trying to prioritise good BG and BP control. When I looked online for my blood test results recently I noticed eGFR was 86. The lab had added a comment Stage 2 CKD which I would not have seen if I’d phoned for the results as the GP had put in the notes “ result satisfactory: no further action”. I was horrified as I only have 1 kidney ( lost one after complications in cancer surgery in 2017) so I would like to preserve its function. I guess it’s like diabetes - ignored until it’s bad enough prescribe meds. I’d much rather manage it now rather than waiting for it to get worse. Looking at various kidney organisations I can only find advice to reduce protein and salt and pretty much everything else I eat in my low carb diet. The good old eatwell plate reared it’s ugly head too. Good glycemic control must surely be at the heart of managing CKD for diabetics. I love Dr Unwin! [/QUOTE]
