Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No, you should not discontinue heart medicines. Diabetic patient on dialysis (end stage kidney disease) is always at risk of heart diseases. So you need to take heart medicines for prophylaxis to prevent heart diseases in the future. If you stop heart medicines, possibility of development of heart disease in future is high. So don't stop heart medicines despite normal ECG, 2d echo and other reports. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
