Hello! A month and a half ago, I was diagnosed with "Chronic glomerulonephritis" after a biopsy. I am taking dehydrocortisone, which is why I follow a diet (the doctors' explanation was without greasy, sweet pasta and salt). Please if anyone has a similar problem share details about the diet (for example "sweet" only sugar includes, can I consume for example honey, do you need a low protein diet and everything that comes to mind!) Also how does cortisone work you have side effects, said that in very common cases diabetes occurs from it, sudden weight gain or rather bloating. Thanks for your time, any information will be useful to me! PS: woman 18 years old.

Glomerulonephritis itself leads to loss of protein in the urine, ie it should be eaten sweet. Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid with many side effects, but without it the situation will become very bad. Write Cushing's syndrome on the Internet and see what the use of CS can lead to, but again I tell you without them you can get to hemodialysis depending on the degree of damage to the glomerulus. This is not a joke diagnosis work, strictly follow the instructions of the doctors !!!!
This is a very, very serious disease. Only a doctor can and should answer your questions. Don't even think about listening to advice from unknown polygamists on the sites. I highly recommend that you seek a doctor in Sofia, especially at the Military Medical Academy.
I'm number 1, you have to take protein, not jam, I'm confused about the speed :)
