  • Could my kidney disease be causing my blood pressure fluctuations?

    Your blood pressure will increase wit time if you have history of high blood pressure. Your blood pressure has to be between 125/80 and 130/85. That blood pressure will protect you for a cardiovascular event, stroke, and kidney problems. The best medication, to treat high blood pressure in diabetics, is an ACE inhibitor like lisinopril, ramipril, etc. Talk to your Primary Care about your blood pressure control. READ MORE
