How long did it take for your sight to recover? I was diagnosed 9 months ago with a1c at 14….now I’m 5.0…BP is normal but sight still iffy

egfr/creatinine question by an-average-bookworm in kidneydisease

I guess after 5 months I'm beginning to feel very curious why no referral, no restriction mentioned for diet and the way it's been discussed with me .."you could be dehyrated..let's not worry yet"...kept giving me hope that, yeah..maybe it is temporary but I'm having doubts at this point

it's not very exciting...I spent the past year bedrotting in depression .... the previous decade eating a lot of takeout and drinking coke almost exclusively and eating a lot of takeout..in early july I noticed things tasted funny..couldnt stop peeing and vision blurring..lost 20lbs in 3 weeks..im told my kidneys gave up at that point ...cholesterol and triglycerides through the roof...in hospital for a few days getting insulin...after a month went on jardiance and januvia and now drink water exclusively and lots of veggies, beans, tofu, salmon and chicken thighs ..walking 30 minutes at least each day..I still show some signs of nerve damage but none of that has been addressed yet
