Stick to your salt and fluid intake that your Dr. Recommends.New treatment options now that were not here 5 years ago. I feel lucky to be diagnosed now as opposed to 5 years ago. You cannot cure it but many times put it in remission. So I am hoping my increased GFR. Is a good sign.

GFR are your kidney numbers . Normal is around 60 at 15 your on dialysis. You know when your numbers are abnormal you’re very tired / don’t want to eat very blah . Your Nephrologist will help pending what’s causing your numbers to drop

Sometimes lasix decreases your kidney function. We changed my medication and d/c the lasix. Went from 48 to 60. Anything above 60 they consider normal. Talk with your cardiologist.
