Hello. I am sorry to hear your daughter is feeling rough. I was feeling sick and nauseous. I changed my diet quiet drastically but, for me at least, it made me feel so much better, gave me more energy and has kept my creatinine levels low for a dialysis patient. I follow an alkaline based diet. There is loads of information about it on the internet. It is hard to do at the beginning as you find new recipes but now love the food I eat as I am now in to the swing if it. It may not work for everyone but it worked for me. I wish your daughter all the best.

Hi

Sorry your daughter is not well. I'm not sure about the connection feeling sick and painkillers as no painkiller will cure sickness. If you have a family doctor (GP) talk her problems with them.

Good Luck

I'm surprised that they haven't started dialysis, I was told that they usually start when function is around 12 to 10%...i would look more into that
