Progressive CKD

[bodhiCHE]

Hello All

My father (68 years old) is having an eGFR in the range of 30-43 for the past one , since we detected foamy urine and consulted the Nephrologist.

His creatinine since last Oct has come from 2.2 to 1.71 ,but last two samples returned 1.78 and 1.95 , while other KFT parameters are well within range.

He is borderline diabetic , with HbA1c being steady at 5.7 ,a HPN patient with blood pressure at around 135/85

The concern is Protein loss , a year ago spot urine to Creatinine ratio was 0.75 , last week it eas measured at 2.51 , doctor says the CKD progressive, we should take further steps to halt the progression.

Esteemed members please share your views , about further steps that need to be taken.

He is physically an active person

I dont understand a Dr saying take steps to stop progression and not tell you what those steps are.! You must feel so worried and confused. My gfr is 29 at last bloods and I've spoken to dietitian about adjustments which I've done but im just waiting now to see what else I should be doing. So I can't help. I wish I could!
