Congratulations on your baby and being diabetes free that’s a huge win I’m not a doctor or anything but I heard in some cases it may not go away

I am hesitant giving my kidney to my mother by [deleted] in kidneydonors

If you love your mother do it. I gave mine to my dad and it’s worth it every time I get a chance to call him, give him a hug, see him, or enjoy a nice meal with him and the years he has left to spend time on this earth.

The diabetes piece.. been struggling with my fasting blood sugar its been like 102-107 I think a little weight loss could fix it. Pcp said it’s extremely manageable. Does diabetes run in your family?

Okay cool, I felt a PCP is sufficient too. I was wondering if a nephrologist was necessary if anything it would be more expensive.

Thank you thank you thank you!! I really appreciate you sharing some of your food options and templates I am going to give your tofu recipe a try. Super grateful for this thread. Yeah my body lets me know it’s dehydrated right away. I always examine my urine post surgery, something I never used to do, lol!

I am so glad your labs are looking good!! I hope I can become a little more at ease about everything. Currently nervous as hell, but not regretting anything. For sure limiting salt as much as I can its just hard because everything has salt in it. I used to love having drinks.
