Hello.....

Since creatinine is same for the past few years, it is highly unlikely that it will come to its normal range. Unfortunately , kidney diseases are often irreversible, so the damage which has been done cannot be repaired. Good thing in your case is that creatinine is stable ...so the aim at present should be maintain it that way...it is important to take care of your diet, blood pressure and diabetes....

Have patience and keep watching your bp. Take the medicines as prescribed by your doctor. Kindly read about healthy lifestyle changes and adapt the good habits in your daily life. You can also learn yoga (including pranayam and meditation) which can learnt from an expert to gain maximum benefit. You can add homeopathy which is safe and gentle and can help harmonize all systems of the body. You can contact me for a private consultation.

Yes you can switch to losartan and cilnidipine.
Losartan has benefits in reducing uric acid also. It will control bp and prevent remodeling of heart too. Adding cildnipine will further help to control bp by dilating blood vessels and reducing work load on heart.
The mainstay of treatment for lvh with diastolic dysfunction is ace/arbs, diuretics, ccbs and beta blockers!
beta blockers may later be added if needed!

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. As regards your blood glucose control, it is excellent. In such a situation I do not see the need for any additional medication like pioglitazone half tablet twice a day. As regards bp and changing to benidipine it may be in your doctors judgment that drug could be more suitable to you. I really have no say on that. However, I do not see any reason for adding pioglitazone with metformin when you have such a good control. Thanks.
