I think the best advice I got was to drink lots and lots of water and have a bowl of ice cream each night before bed.

The water for the kidneys and the ice cream for the calories. Besides ice cream has significant, but difficult to quantify medicinal benefits.

Definitely on the water.. My hospital was super cautious with cisplatin, they kept us in for the night on a full IV to flush the kidneys, hugs
