Acute Renal Failure
I am asking for advice on behalf of my brother who was dx with ACR 3 weeks ago as a result of prostate problems. He was admitted with I believe a creatinine of 2,000+ which has come down to 570 with an egfr of 45. What does this mean? He was discharged on Monday with a line & catheter in circumstances

Stage 3 Chronic Kidney disease
I was diagnosed yesterday with Stage 3 Kidney Disease. I'm still reeling from the diagnosis. I also was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2011. I'm 60 yo and wonder why everything is suddenly going wrong after always being healthy. Any advice on diet and exercise would be helpful. Thank you

What are the Reasons of Renal Anemia
The symptom of renal anemia is so mild that patients may not feel it. Many patients think that having a good rest is enough when they have the symptoms of fatigue, dizziness, palpitation and shortness of breaths after activities because they do not have much knowledge of renal anemia. What they haven

D.L.A. Award
After 5 attempts I have finally been given DLA. You really do need to keep trying after all. Just got the letter saying I have highest award for mobility and lowest award for care. Rang the DWP and guess what ? I still have to attend for my ESA support to get me back to work. Just have to convince

Regrets
A man stirs next to me in bed He's not really here He's nearly dead. 'Twas just three months today That in the middle of the night He sat up and said "My God I do feel ill" "You've been saying that for years" I crossly replied "how many times have you thought you've died?" "Go back to sleep
