I’m surprised I found this video. I’ve been diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome which includes proteinuria a few months ago and went to the hospital. They found out that I had 3 grams of protein in my urine and my cholesterol was almost 900 (not kidding). I’ve taken lisinopril, steroids, and other supplements that are working. The thing is I’ve been diagnosed bipolar 4 years prior and been experiencing many anxiety attacks. My doc says the diagnosis is uncommon for my age; early adulthood.

2) High blood pressure
3) Drug use
3) Genetics. So if it runs in the family.

I use Diovan and Lisinopril-Both are used to treat high blood pressure(hypertension).
High blood pressure adds to the work load of the heart and arteries. If it continues for a long time, the heart and arteries may not function properly. This can damage the blood vessels of the brain, heart, and kidneys.
