Coping with trifecta of health issues Topic


Hello all,

I've been dealing with Congestive Heart Failure and Chronic Kidney Disease since July 2013 and pretty successfully keeping my numbers in check through diet, exercise and medication - although every time they change my meds, my weight balloons. Now my bloodwork is showing a spike in blood sugar levels which were never an issue for me outside of pregnancy, so I need to ingrate a diabetes friendly diet into the routine. HELP. Reaching out for contacts that successfully maneuver different lifestyle diets. (diabetes friendly and kidney friendly don't match, other than fruits, veggies and lean protein which I already do.)

Trying to start of 2017 the right way and I have a scheduled appointment with a dietitian on the 4th, and other doctor visits in January as well. Also switching Primary care so that everyone is in the same group and can coordinate care.
