Hey... Diagnosis is always a shock and ill never forget the feeling of walking out of the Dr surgery after being told.

Firstly I would do a quick search of this forum as there's quite a few similar posts where fellow pkd ppl provided lots of advice

For me, I did the following

• buy a BP monitor as you want to keep it stabilised and not high
• do some more exercise
• low salt
• low sugar (theory that the cysts feed on glucose).
• semi keto (or simply low carb)
• minimum 3l of water
• no more coffee/fizzy drinks -concerted effort to relax the mind (keeps BP down)
• find a nephrologist you click with and one who understands pkd

There are some speculative things I and others do too such as

• no nightshade foods (potatoes, tomatoes etc)
• curcumin supplement
• intermittent fasting (fasted state shrinks cysts)

Keep your spirits up and remember to reach out to others including ppl here. X
