Hi gowusu
I'm very similar to you
I have ckd stage 3 but last time my doc said I had went down to stage 2 it's all to do with your egfr numbers anything below 60 is stage 3 but it can go up and down, I think everyone's does but only ckd patients ever know about it as we are monitored
I'm 38 yrs old male with a small amount of protein in my urine but I only have 1 working kidney the other has not developed properly and has very little function From birth
Iv have only found out about this in the last 2 yrs due to a urine check otherwise I wouldn't have been none the wiser
Good luck I wish u well
Hi Stevo99,
Thanks so much for your reply. I know I'll slip back into stage 2 and better. I was diagnosed October last year when my blood pressure shot up. I didn't take it serious until I started reading about it last month. Now I drink a lot more water than I used to. Are you on any medication to reduce your creatinine level? Mine is 132
Hi
No no meds or symptoms or anything apart from small amount of protein in urine
I think my last creatinine level was around 120
But I'm being more active and eating more healthily
Do you have any other symptoms?
Lower back pain, tiredness, swelling ankles/wrists etc ?
