PKD patient

[dorene_frances]

Hi, I need a little help in here. I've been diagnosed with PKD last year (2017). Anyway, I'm in my 30's and I feel it's getting worse after the diagnosed. Never notice the symptoms at first. But right now, the symptoms getting worse each day. Right now I'm having an itching all over my both arms and legs. There were some bruise spotting on my left arm. Having a difficulty in breathing and sometimes having nausea. My appointment is not available until November. What should I do? Should I go to ER, since in my country the specialist (government) not available on holiday and weekend.

You should go to your local Emergency Room right away. Difficulty breathing should be taken very seriously. It's important to be seen by a doctor as soon as possible.

I think u should go to the hospital. If u are having trouble nausea and not being able to breathe those are things u have to be careful with.

It is best you go to emergency room. These are very serious symptoms and should be treated by physician.
