Here is today's Awareness for Kidney Disease
Yesterday, we talked about stages 1 and 2 . Here is what stages 3 and 4 could be.
๐
Stage 3 is moderate kidney damage and could show signs of being fatigue, you may have some fluid retention, shortness of breath, back pain, urination changes like foamy urine, dark orange, brown tea colored and if it's red then there is blood in your urine.
๐
Stage 4 is advanced kidney damage and signs could show the same as Stage 3 but you will start to feel nausea/you may vomit, your taste in your mouth changes to a metallic kind of taste, your breath may not smell the best, loss of appetite and difficulty in concentration.
๐
I am not a health care provider, nor do I have a degree in this. I am just simply offering what I have come to learn since my mom was on diaylsis for almost 20 years.
Kidney disease is not something that is often talked about. I hope the information provided this month helps someone.
๐
Tomorrow, we will discuss the final stage, which is Stage 5.
