I go to the nyphrologist on Monday. My countis even lower now and I am only 56. I do not take diabetes meds...just watch my count at this point. I check it each morning fasting and 2 hours after dinner. I think they will probably want to change the lasix I've been on for many years. I've retained at least 11 pounds of fluid since I was 30 years old. Something hormonely happened that could never be corrected. There in lies the cause of the lasix for so long. I pray there is no permanent kidney damage. Please add your prayers. This nyphrologist is an expert at changing meds to work better and will also do a sonogram. Can anyone tell me the questions I need to ask. Thanks so much
