[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 513165, member: 84"] Being a member of the medical profession, I probably shouldn't say this..........but docs don't have all the answers. They do have a lot of knowledge, but not all the answers. They probably never will. Like here, I take what I can use and I don't worry about the rest. The last thing in the world I should drink is tea and coffee due to the diuretic effect of the caffiene. Nephrologist liked to stroked when he found out how much I drink of both. He told me it would kill me, while I told him it obviously hadn't as I'm still around. lol But I tried it his way......and I retained water worse than ever even after the lasix dosage was doubled and put at twice a day. I've gone back to my tea and I feel better. My goal is not to get well. I'm not going to get well. My goal is to feel as good as I can on any given day. I think it was like a year or so later they "discovered" the antioxidants in tea. (now it's healthy lol ) Heck, they can't make up their minds what we should / shouldn't eat anyway or how good or bad it is for us. Those 8 glasses of water per day that was supposed to be so good for you? Well now they've changed their minds......you're supposed to get your water in your food. (whatever that is supposed to mean) Red meat is now good for you, and you should eat it in moderation. So I eat according to what makes me feel better; low salt because salt does a number on me fast and it doesn't take much either. I watch the amount of animal protein, but I won't stop eating it. ect I'm glad the vit D issue is correcting itself without drastic measures that make you feel like you're dying. No one should have to feel that way as a form of "treatment". in my opinion Yay for you!!! : ) [/QUOTE]
