Hello Hidden , KelliC_NKF

there is a lot of information around and the Kidney nurse says I read too much , I have regular blood tests check ups every 6 months and the kidney specialist is happy because the kidney is stable

I have infections inbetween visits and am on AB`s when I get them

I now have Hiatus hernia and osteo Arthritis -- the GP has put me on osteo Panadol which I can`t take too many of

living in a small town we get new doctors all the time , so when I see a new doctor , they say oh you have CKD bad

what !!! but my kidney team is happy with my last results which was in December ,
