Covid, meds do they help?
I have
CKD

Anxiety is back as bad as ever
I have recently been told that I’m pre diabetic and that I have
CKD
both thought to be due to heart meds. Then the other day, out of the blue, another call from surgery regarding cholesterol results. All these diagnoses were from bloods taken last June!

Some times the protein pad will go a tiny bit darker round the edges other times it shows no protein… so does this indicate
CKD
?

The amazing Kidney
Unlike most with
CKD
, I am not diabetic. It seems that a plant based low protein diet is the only known way to maintain what’s left of my kidney function so I’m always looking for diet information from those in the same boat.

Hyperthyroid (Graves) & kidney disease after treatment
I know Hyperthyroid can mask
CKD
and am currently very anxious about it. I put over a stone on over last year, unusual for hyperthyroid but does happen. Has anyone had similar experience and advice? Thank you!

COVID and GFR decline
I had been diagnosed with
ckd
a few years prior (GFR of 52) and had been slowly declining. In Feb of 2021, I got COVID and since then my numbers have dropped and not recovered. My GFR is now a 31. My kidney disease is inherited and I do take meds to control my blood pressure.

Dialysis, what are the cons?
I'm 80 with
CKD
, stage 4, COPD and Diabetes. Those are bad enough to deal with but also have chronic random pain that no one seems to be able to figure out and it's getting worse. If I do decide to have it it would be at a center. Thanks.

Mild gout and colchicine
Apologies for coming on the
CKD
page but wasn't sure where to go. And I know it is only a very minor problem compared to most but am currently in Thailand and from experience am a bit wary of heslthcare advice. Thanks for your patience.

CKD
. Is this something that you do and if so, where do I get one and what do I put on it?

How to find a donor
Suffering from
CKD
stage 3(b) since 1 year but now the condition is not good. It's stage 4 and I think it needs a transplant (as to avoid dialysis). I am not able to find a donar in my close circle. What are the other options to find?

my recent cystoscopy
I was diagnosed with
CKD
a number of years ago because of blood levels and protein and I had never had or been told that I had blood in my urine. This is new for me since July and I also had grosshematuria.
