<\/strong>Also, what foods to avoid to have healthy kidneys and bladder?<\/strong><\/p>\n
I am 42 years male on single kidney having gone radical nephrectomy earlier this year due to malignant cyst on the right kidney.<\/strong>
After surgery I am completely back to normal life and am under periodic check-up.<\/strong>
My creatinine levels are bit on the higher side which is 1.47 when tested yesterday and also phosphorus is 5.2.<\/strong>
I am a bit worried on the same. Kindly advise what to do.<\/strong><\/p>\n
I had my kidney biopsy test. Doctors are saying that due to high BP my kidneys tissue was damaged upto 55 percent so only your creatine level is not reducing, it is not possible to develop that spoiled tissues also so be control and reduce your BP that’s all we can do. <\/strong>
Now I am taking tablets for BP, Atnol, Amlong, Arakamin.
Please give me suggestions to increase or to reboot my kidney cells.
Because doctors are saying no way to reboot dead tissues, is it possible or not? Please share your suggestions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
