How do I get my NDT on the NHS
I know that sounds dramatic but my kidneys are failing rapidly and I know there is a link with high BP, cholesterol and
CKD
. Can anyone advise me please?

Hello, I have Type 2 diabetes and
ckd
. I may have to have a toe amputated due to the diabetes. What does surgery do to kidney function? Does it make it go down. Last gfr was 24. Thank you.

CKD 3A
I was diagnosed with
CKD
3 in December 2023. I understand that my GFR was 49 and my urine was fine me, but apart from that I don’t have any other data.

New PA diagnosis
I also have Hashimotos (autoimmune thyroid addressed & on meds) and
ckd
stage 3 I was given the B12 loading dose of 6 injections. I read since a high intake of B12 is not good for the kidneys?

Tylenol pm dangerous ??
I know that Tylenol is often recommended for pain with
CKD
stage 3. But I am wondering if Tylenol PM is safe. I know that Tylenol PM includes an antihistamine to help with sleep. Does anyone have any experience with this OTC medication?

Stage II CKD
Diagnosed Jan. 2022; egfr 55 at that time, Symptoms: high bp, recurrent UTI's (once yearly since 2021). BP up now, trying to get under control again. On beta blocker and ARB now, but info I've read (Mayo Clinic) suggest BB and ARB combined use less effective for hypertension. No reported adverse reactions

eGFR moving up???
While there are
CKD
warnings on the medication, there are also studies showing is slows
CKD
progression. I couldn't find anything about improving
CKD
. I've gained 8 points. I was at 22 before starting MJ. I know small fluctuations are normal, but 8 points?

Creatinine Question
Then my cardiologist said that I had
CKD
, which led to an appointment with a Nephrologist. Nephrologist confirmed
CKD
. I've just been doing some reading on the subject and apparently Testosterone Replacement causes muscle growth, which in turn causes Creatinine levels to go up.

Kidney failure definition
My dad has advised her that the GP is talking tosh and she is just stage 3
CKD
. I realise
CKD
/stages may be more complex than just egfr measurement with symptoms taken into account but I tend to agree that this is sadly yet another case of a medic ignorant of specific diseases.
