March - National Kidney Month
About 2-3 months later, I ended up in the hospital with
nephritis
, basically an inflammation of the kidneys. Some 30 years later, I was diagnosed with kidney failure with a condition called Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis or commonly called FSGC - all related back to my case of strep.

Monitoring During Pregnancy
I'm 11 weeks pregnant and have Lupus
Nephritis
with stage 3 CKD, and my next midwife and first antenatal consultant appointments aren't until mid-late November. This is an IVF pregnancy so I'm over-anxious about everything, and am worried that I've got 7/8 weeks with no appointments.

Reducing prednisolone
Have been on prednisolone plus immunosuppressants for over 6 years for sle, lupus profundus and
nephritis
more recently. Now have been on mycophenalate for just over a year and have even had normal bloods for the first time in 6 years. Mycophenalate seems to really suit me.

Renal diet
Hi everyone, I have lupus
nephritis
my kidneys are slowly worsening. I have been told to lose weight but be cautious about what I’m eating. I have no idea where to begin. Does anyone have any diet plans they follow specifically for renal complications?

Going for a massage on Tuesday
Before all the lupus/APS/
nephritis
fiasco in December, I used to go for a massage every two weeks for my back. In December, I was admitted into the hospital for a huge DVT in my left leg, and bilateral PEs. The first three weeks I was in ICU and the bed was unbelievably comfortable.

Lupus Nephritis and protein in urine
Anyone with Lupus
Nephritis
and protein in the urine... Just wondering how long and if the protein levels ever normalized for you?. I have been reading some research that it can take years. My brother w class 5 LN started at 8 g daily, down to 1.6 after 11 months of treatment.

Nephritis as a child
I had
nephritis
as a child (back in the early 60's it was treated in hospital by a complete fruit diet - that was all I could eat for several weeks) and was told that I would suffer from high blood pressure when I got older as a result.
