Well done! What do you attribute it to? Your response indicates lifestyle and I presume the drug you were considering very recently cant have helped or wasnt taken.

I cant see all your posts (states "Live4Hope has not written a post yet"!)

It's very strange, it says that on my end too even though I've posted before.

I think it's been a combination of life style changes and the Lisinopril, not sure yet, will need another UACR to determine. I've lost about 88 pounds and blood pressure has stayed within the range of 118/74

OK. Hope your egfr doesnt drop (or at least too much), as widely reported with ACE-is 🤞

So far it has been about the same, my doctor said it tends to drop but overtime will climb back up to normal but mine doesn't appear to be dropping. I will keep monitoring of course because I've read the same. I appreciate your involvement!

Not what you're looking for?
