Confused about Statins
Given that I'm now Stage 4
CKD
with an eGfr of 27, it's not something that I can ignore, so, I'll discuss with the HF Team next week.

CKD
I need regular checks don’t I?

Preparing for transplant
My wife has stage 4
CKD
. Nephrologist today reviewed blood work GFR over last 9 months - 22 on 1/27, 16 on 7/12, 19 on 9/28, 17 on10/17. I had optimistically attributed low GFR to dehydration. Dr says, OK, but trend is downward and you should get prepared for dialysis and transplant.

CKD & autoimmune disease
After reading a few posts on here I realize I need to do everything I can to stop
CKD
for progressing. I am just wondering if there are other people who have
CKD
due to an autoimmune disease and what treatments they have tried. How did that affect
CKD
?

Thoughts?
There is a question here though, if by some unhappy chance I do have
CKD
, what does a statin do to levo or thyroid in general? I play roulette daily with supplements, fibre, coffee, certain vegetables etc.

Can taking Sinemet when not needed cause PSP-like symptoms?
She had been suffering many of the usual aging problems,
CKD
, obesity, hypertension etc and also a left hand tremor. During her stay she was treated for a UTI , and given lots of tests and also suffered Delerium. She was given her 'routine' medication, Sinemet, for her Parkinson's Disease?

Fibroscan results (strange) S0 with F4????
i noticed since i started it back in 2015, my kidney GFR dropped by 30 points and been in 60s for all these years which puts me at stage 2
CKD
. I am in process of stopping it for few months and do another kidney tests to see if cretinine levels go down a bit.

Pros and Cons of Lipitor
I am at stage 3 a/b
CKD
, prediabetic, with high blood pressure meds (Maxide, Losartan, and Atenolol). My cholesterol is not high, but I believe Lipitor is being used as prevention since I am almost 73 years old. I plan to ask why 10mg isn't being recommended instead.

pregabalin
I have just been prescribed Pregabalin for my anxiety, however I have
CKD
stage 3 and IBSc (chronic constipation). I did tell the prescribing doctor this, a very nice lady doctor but she seemed to go deaf just then 😕.

CKD new diagnosis.
HG 72 They also did blood and urine tests and told me I had
CKD
Stage 3 which was a complete shock, and has left me scared and confused. During a previous ultrasound scan where gallstones were found, they also noticed a problem with my left kidney.

CKD and Medication
I have talked to my Nephrologist about medication for
ckd
3b, and she discussed Jardian and Farxiga She told me that Farxiga causes severe dehydration, which forces you to drink up to 3 litres of water per day, which is TOO much Does anyone know ANY other medications that do NOT cause dehydration
