sodium
bicarbonate
to neutralise the acid. This is useful but still a bit painful and I don't think its very healthy.

I've also read that low zinc levels

Metabolic Acidosis
I told him how exhausted I was feeling & he prescribed
Sodium
Bicarbonate
for a month. So I have Metabolic Acidosis. My GP's have told me now (after I had finished the initial order) that they had issued more of these tablets.

Yesterday Saw My Nephrologist
I'm even scared to taking four pills of
Sodium
Bicarbonate
. I just feel so overwhelmed each Dr's visit is like waiting for a life sentence, and my heart is being ripped apart. Just another day in the neighborhood as Mr. Rodgers would say hope everyone is well. 🌹

F3 Fibrosis Regression
hi all First post and have to say, read a lot of posts and can only thank everyone who contributes and helps educate others about their own personal way forward. So here is my question. How long does it realistically take ( with doing everything possible ) to regress from F3 severe fibrosis to F2?

How much salt is good for an elderly CKD patient?
I just read a reply to a 77 years old lady advising her to keep her salt low. I wonder if it is good advice for an elderly patient according to a study reported in the periodical Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation titled "Predictive effect of salt intake on patient and kidney survival in non-dialysis

lidocaine?
A doctor is recommending I try a lidocaine patch for diagnostic reasons. Does anyone have experience with it or know if it is contraindicated for afib? It is apparently a sodium channel blocker. It is sold over the counter as IcyHot etc. Thank you so much!

New results confused
Hi all, I was chatting on here a few days ago worried about blood results and my GP saying I had CKD and had had this for quite a while. I had no idea. Now, this is what I don’t get, two weeks ago I had my kidney bloods done and the results were worrying apparently? The blood test was repeated yesterday

Low Sodium Level
Hello Seeing low sodium levels in blood work, and they believe it is because of the cancer cells. I do take salt tablets and increase salt in food and drink. What's the best way to prove methods of increasing sodium levels?

Stage 4 - Soup?
Do any of you in Stage 4 eat Chicken Noodle Soup, etc.? I also have very low BP and have to take Midodrine daily to keep a normal BP. So, the salt in the soup would be helpful. Is the sodium content the only reason they say we shouldn't have too much soup? If BP is low, is it okay to eat? Thanks
