A member asked:
My father s.creatinine still 1.7 after 2 months on diet and medical control, can it goes back to normal he is 72 hypertensive with paroxysmal afib?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No complete recovery: At age 72 chronic hypertensive patients usually have long term kidney problems and do not recover completely, but medication and diet significantly can improve kidney function and prevent further worsening.
