What I am doing to help?

Unfortunately, there is not much I can do to help sweet Sticky. I do treat myself like I have PKD and steer clear of foods that should be avoided when one has PKD.  Basically, I have to avoid animal protein, sodium, and caffeine. The last one means no chocolate!!  (This one is especially hard for a pregnant woman).  I try to eat lots of fruits and veggies and drink tons of water.  I also know that stress and anxiety can only be bad for him, so I try very hard to stay optimistic and relaxed (much easier said than done!)  To aid in this, I go to see an acupuncturist every two weeks.  She also treats me like I have kidney disease by placing the needles in the corresponding pressure points.  I also read that apple cider vinegar can help PKD, so I drink a few tablespoons of that each night.  I also take Flax Seed oil because it has been shown to reduce cyst growth in patients with PKD.  Not sure if any of this will work, but it can't hurt!  Just trying to do everything I can to help our sweet, defenseless little guy!
