U should not skip any medication particularly blood pressure medications. Poor bp control will lead to rapid progression of kidney disease and also can lead to other catastrophes like heart attack and brain stroke. It is better to avoid fasting and continue medications as advised.

High levels could be a sign of many conditions, including gout, kidney disease, and cancer. But it could be higher than normal because you eat foods with a lot of purines. That includes dried beans or certain fish such as anchovies, mackerel, and sardines. Usually, your doctor will order other tests at the same time to track down what’s causing your symptoms. Your doctor will then help you understand what all your results mean and what your next steps are.
