CKD2

Hi All,

It's fab to find this forum! I've been diagnosed with CKD2. Just wondering if nausea is a regular symptom at such an early stage. I have constant nausea most days and it's quite frustrating!

Any other useful advice/tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you all.

I was just diagnosed with CKD stage 3 (caused by IGA nephropathy) in January. The few months before the diagnosis I was very nauseous and when I had bad bouts I was vomiting nearly every day. My nephrologist said it is uncommon to be that nauseous. He prescribed me some anti-nausea drugs they give patients on chemotherapy and it made everything better so I highly recommend this. When I was very ill I wasn't eating anything and was so dehydrated and felt a million times better when I took the drug and was able to hold down food.

I was also much more nauseous in the morning and it would get a bit better in the afternoon. For some reason the only thing I could eat was fruit (citrusy fruit like pinneapple and oranges).

Curious to hear from others about if they experience nausea at such an early stage and what they did.

Thank you so much for your response and I hope your nausea has subsided. Sounds like you have had a rough ride with it.

I’m hoping some lifestyle changes will help matters but this is all very new to me so again, I appreciate the response.

Sending you my best wishes.
