I had a kidney transplant March 30, 2010.  My new kidney is working perfectly with a creatinine of 0.9.  It started working immediately and has worked beautiful.  I have been on Glipizide since the transplant (5mg twice daily) to control blood sugar.  I was not diabetic before the transplant and feel like if I loose weight, I could control it with diet.  I weigh 165 lbs now and would like to be back to 140 lbs.  Can I do the ChatDoctor diet?
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist and kidney transplant surgeon, ill never advise a Chat Doctor diet. Your kidney graft is working well so far, then why not exercise regularly and reduce diet intake daily. Chat Doctor diet isn't safe or effective and has side effects.It's not recommended by FDA, as Chat Doctor diet advises to take 600-800 call/day. The side effects of electrolyte imbalance, edema, depression,irritability, etc, are not advised for any patient. You've to be more careful than other people. If you've any doubt. You may send it as a direct question, to me. Chat Doctor.  Manga.
