I've been diagnosed with albumin in my urine, and I also have diabetes and high blood pressure. My blood urea and creatinine levels are at 1.2 and 40, respectively. Are these levels risky, and what steps should I take next?

In conclusion, albumin in urine is an early sign that should not be ignored, especially if you're already dealing with diabetes and high blood pressure. However, since your kidney function tests are still normal, this is a good sign, and with proper management, the risk of kidney damage can be minimized.

I'm really worried about my father. He's 80 and has been having serious kidney problems. He hasn't had proper meals for about 4 months and is just on liquid foods now, so you can imagine how weak he's become. He's also got high blood pressure and issues with his lungs, liver, kidneys, and heart. He's struggling with passing urine and stools as well. We recently did an endoscopy, and the results weren't good at all; there were some abnormalities. His kidney problem has reached a stage 4. The doctors have given him meds like dytor10, isosorbide mononitrate, cardipin, czopressco 2.5, metaproxl 25, idiot 20, omeprazole, and ciploric 100. But he's not eating anything. I'm hoping you could suggest some diet tips or precautions I could take. Would it be okay to give him something like B protein powder or pomegranate juice?

All these are age related issues which lead to current scenario.its not possible to advice without clinical examination ,dont worry you are in right hands,follow your doctors advice
