Hello, You have stage 3 Diabetic Nephropathy, and you have both Diabetes and Hypertension. Diabetic Nephropathy is progressive in nature and you should keep your suagar and blood pressure under good control, avoid medications which hamper kidney functions and do refular check up of serum creatinine and microalbuminuria to see progression of the kidney function, also please consult opthalmologist to get your retina checked for Diabetic Retinopathy. Thanks
