A member asked:

T1 diabetic, kidneys leaking 1000 mg of protein. is this full failure or k. disease that can be fixed with ramipril and good control of blood sugar?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Focus on sugar: Uncontrolled blood sugar is the most common reason to develop chronic kidney failure. A young person without other medical issues except diabetes will win the battle of frank kidney failure he/she focuses on getting that sugar adequately controlled asap
