I recently had blood work done and egfr was at 50 three weeks later it’s 37 creatine 1.56
I’m chilling having backache . I let my guard down cause I thought hey 50 is good so I went off diet went back on some Advil for pain ( only if I have to) and Nexium.
My weight has also dropped 8 pounds in 3 weeks I’m under 100 pounds now. I don’t feel hungry at all . Scant urine. ? If I go back to no salt cut red meat and no Advil do you think it would help? I see the hematologist to go over my labs this afternoon Friday and the Nephrologist the 29th.
I just hate feeling nauseous reminds me when my bowels blocked and had septicemia. I’m just worried with so many things going on at once I feel scared and it’s like I’m afraid the nodule is cancer. I feel like ‘ if ‘ I could sleep I’d like to sleep through all this it’s piling so much anxiety I’m about to be broken worse than ever . Sorry this is so long God Bless y’all.

Sounds as if you have a lot going on and you're very worried. Sorry to read about all the stress you have. Hoping that you get some positive news when you have your doctors visits. Prayers and good thoughts
sorry you aren’t feeling well glad you have an appointment coming up. Please share all you said with your doctor . I know advil is an Ibuprofen which is not recommended for kidney disease and I would cut out the red meat it couldn’t hurt .
Yeah definitely get off the advil and the red meat and salt. Are you drinking enough water. If you have chronic heartburn as the reason you take nexium get that assessed. Get off the nexium too. Both are contributing to the futherr decline.
yea I’ve taken Nexium for several years now. Because the GI said he was worried that esophagus lining was looking like it could turn cancerous? . My creatinine is a little high at 1.56 and last egfr wa 37 3 weeks earlier it was 50? I feel so bad. I hate nausea reminds me of septicemia. I hope Friday the hematologist can help me understand the labs he ran. I don’t know how many bottles of water I can get down a day I’m starting 3 bottle in the afternoon?
