Hi David I agree it takes time and it changes over time a bit. My initial dose was like 1-1,5 pils per day now I have been on 3 per day except tuesdays and Thursday when I take 2. Been like that the last 12-14 months. The two big dips are when the brought me in for surgery of the anerysm on my kidney artery and took me off Warfarin and gave me injections and some other stuff. I had dip after like 4-5 months when I was up to speed training again and they gradually had to increase the dose to where I am today. They said it was fully normal that when you start to get your training going they have to increase the dose. One other minor dip they can not explain and they say it can happen and one down to 1,7 was when I disconnected my brain and did not think and had too much spinach pie.. 😀 Try to eat and train in consistent way.

Hi Chad You will manage this as well. It is mostly K-vitamin rich food such as spinach, broccoli etc that affects. I love candy and also salt and that does not really look like it is affecting. I also take some blood pressure medicine to get me down to a good level. I always try to stay hydrated also for the remaining kidney. The med team said to me it is a mix of who you are, what you eat and how you train but mostly it is to do it in a way that you do not vary too much. I eat as I did before but think a bit more around k-vitamin rich food to have it stable over time and try to stay hydrated.

David Same for me even if a I eat a bit of it and really try to eats the same over the weeks. The increased training also had a big impact on me where the had to increase the dose and now I am on 7,5g per day. Measured now again last Wednesday and luckily spot on my mid value 2.4. Now off for golf with wife, my brother and his son 😀
