I don't know how a biopsy could show a hernia but okay. No, I don't believe they are connected to CKD. But, that being said I am not a physician so I have no education to back that up. Best thing to do is talk with your doctor and ask for details. I do know diverticulitis can be more common in those with CKD, but CKD may not necessarily be the cause. Best of luck to you. #kindredkidneys
