I was at kidney disease stage 4 and they were talking about dialysis being the next step.

Maybe I was lucky or maybe the eating regime that I followed paid dividends. But I am now stage 3. It still needs watching but things are not necessarily one way.

Even if you do get to dialysis its not the end. I met someone who had been on dialysis for many years, so dont give up.

If you havent got a food chart already take a look at this

I found that I was able to tolerate alkaline foods much better than others and tried to incorporate more of them into my diet. I was also given bicarbonate of soda to take as a med. I suffer from acid reflux even now, but it does seem a bit better on occasions if I have been able to structure my eating properly.

I think that something sets off the auto-immune response which goes on to cause the problems. Obviously everyone is searching to find out what that is.
