  • Seeing preventable kidney failure is one of the hardest parts of being a nephrologist. The top causes of chronic kidney disease or CKD are often avoidable or manageable if caught early. The good news? There are ways to detect declining kidney function before it's too late. In this video, I'll share 10 chronic kidney disease symptoms you must not ignore. Knowing these could help you get ahead of kidney problems, slow their progression, and avoid dialysis.

    I ignored all kinds of obvious symptoms. I was sick beyond belief and didn’t do anything about it for way too long. I’m stage 5 now (end stage) and on dialysis at 40 years old. I’m mostly stable, but don’t feel well a lot. Thank goodness I’m almost listed for a transplant and a great candidate for one. Anyone want to donate a kidney? 😇

    My mum passed away in November from kidney failure. She was poorly for a couple of years with several of these symptoms. She refused to go the doctors, she was too scared to go and it cost her her life. DON'T WAIT! Please go to the doctors, I miss my Mum every second of every day & my heart is shattered 💔

    Kidney failure runs in my family. My grandmother and father died from it. I used to experience kidney pains in my back and I have peed blood. I also used to have to urinate several times a night. I went to the doctor and they found no issues. My brother has had kidney issues even, but thankfully my issues or any signs have all subsided.

    One should totally eliminate sugar COMPLETELY, not just “added sugar.” Low carb vegetables only, no starchy vegetables, beans, grains or nuts. Eliminating wheat gluten would help, too. Eat good sources of grass fed meats, eggs,butter, avocado/olive oil, NO vegetable oil, canola, cottonseed, palm oils, or any seed oils.

I keep hearing from other doctors online saying low protein or even no protein is best to avoid additional burden on the kidneys. Then I've seen people online healing stage 4 ckd from eating pure meat with the carnivore diet. It's so confusing! Would moderate protein intake be recommended?

    I’ve had the swollen ankles for a few years. I’ve had the weight loss, I was 180lbs and now weigh 106. I have a horrible taste in my mouth but I don’t liken it to a metallic taste, it’s more garlicky, altho it does change. I definitely have memory issues. Ive had all these symptoms for many years but my doc didn’t follow thru with any kind of tests to dx anything. I feel if I had of been dx’ed sooner it wouldn’t of gotten this bad. My gfr is 29%. My doc seems more concerned about getting my bp under control.
