View allI'm really concerned about my kidney health since my serum creatinine levels recently went up from 1.6 to 2.2. After cutting out salt from my diet, the levels came down to 1.7. I'm looking for advice on medications that could help bring my creatinine down to around 1.3. I'm also managing diabetes, with an HbA1C of 8.2, and I've been on insulin Human mixtard with 35 units in the morning and 25 at night. My blood pressure is currently under control, but I would really appreciate any advice on medicines that could help with both my kidney and diabetes issues.
. I can understand your worry.. creatinine is measure of kidney function.. since you have diabetes and hypertension, both of which affects kidney if not controlled properly.. hba1c of 8.2 is not good control.. it's has to be below 7 then only it's good control.. have small frequent meals instead of three big meals, have more fibre rich diet, have green leafy vegetables, in fruits have guava, orange, avoid sapota, papaya, apple, banana.. reduce carbohydrates and fats.. for kidney disease, reduce salt intake and have low protein intake.. consult dietician for complete diet plan..

I'm really worried about my mom's health right now. She's been dealing with a urine infection and her creatinine levels got up to 6.62. Theyve come down to 5 in the last three months after treatment, but I'm still concerned. Her blood sugar is stable, but her hemoglobin has dropped to 7.1. She's been having 200ml of double toned milk and 50gm of chicken every day, along with other foods. I'm wondering if beans and peas are safe for her to eat. Also, I've heard about chamomile teado you think it might help lower her creatinine levels?
