QUOTE(RGRaj @ Mar 2 2025, 11:04 PM) Was on Metformin & Glimicron for years. Earlier this year the doctor stopped those & prescribed insulin because of the CKD. I was diagnosed with stage 3a about 1 year ago. No specialized diet at the moment. Eating balanced meals, meds & exercise. What is ur egfr reading right now, and insulin brand if u OK to share.

Good medication will improve and slowing down the process, some early intensification can slow down by 10-15 years.. as we all know diabetes is a progressive diseases.. Need to consult Endocrinologist, they will tell you, if you have the budget.

Anyway the KK doctor has prescribed folic acid, vit B complex & iron tablets, on top of Amlopidine which I'm already taking. There are many FB treatment & supplement sellers who claim can heal CKD but I always thought it cannot be reversed.
