I'm 80 Years Old And Have Been Diagnosed With CKD-type 3. I Try To Substitute Nuts, Seeds And Beans For Protein Requirements.

A myIgANteam Subscriber asked a question 💭

My urologist recommends pumpkin seeds for prostate health, my cardiologist recommends flax seeds for lowering BP. Also, potassium pills. It seems kidney health recommendations would eliminate these. Also, I'd like to follow a plant-based diet. How can I satisfy my protein requirements without beans, nuts and seeds? Help.

Butter/Margarine Use

A myIgANteam Subscriber asked a question 💭

I have just learned I have 45-50% remaining kidney function. I’m 74 years old. I want to change my diet ASAP to protect my remaining kidney function. No salt. But butter is going to be tough for me to quit. What are good choices instead?

My husband complained for years to his doctors about unbearable abdominal pain twenty-four hours a day every day. On the day he passed in the emergency department of the hospital, he had very little urine accumulated in the bag but he was becoming extremely bloated from the fluid intake as I.V. He was never diagnosed as having kidney problems; in fact he was never tested for it. Could he have died from kidney failure? Would you have any idea as to why he became so bloated from the many bags of I.V. administered?
