Today is World Kidney Day
Kidney disease is not a disease that affects only a handful of people. Over SEVEN million people have it in the UK. Maybe that’s your neighbour. Your parent. Your work colleague. Your child. Or even you...

Living with CKD is anxiety provoking. Every blood test brings that fear that eGFR has dropped and dialysis and transplant are getting closer. I have polycystic kidney disease so it is a “when” not an “if”…. /6 #worldkidneyday #dontkidyourself
KIDNEY DISEASE Kidney disease is a journey no one plans nor asks for, its symptoms are a warning from a damaged or failing system we must never ignore, over seven million people have it in the UK and not everyone realises before it's too late; Kidney disease isn't just caused by a lifestyle decision, Sometimes it's inherited but can be a manageable condition, Better awareness and care can reduce the feelings of despair, it's your early intervention, not the disease, that will determine your fate. From Swollen ankles, feet or hands to Blood or froth in your wee; Extra tiredness, shortness of breath, difficulty concentrating and other less obvious symptoms to see, You may feel or be sick and have persistently puffy eyes or face; you may notice weight loss or loss of appetite, have itchy skin, discomfort in your lower back, side or abdomen, or need to wee more often, If you have these symptoms please speak to your GP just in case. Your kidneys work hard to keep you alive by being aware and treating them with care your whole body will thrive, Kidney disease strikes silently and it won't go away quietly, It's incurable but in life there are no guarantees; Stay hopeful but do what's necessary to heal, pay attention to your mental health and how your body feels, You can do this and you have what it takes, because It takes heart to fight the impact of kidney disease.
Today is World Kidney Day
It's important to take care of your kidneys and to be aware of the symptoms of kidney disease. Please share this so others can be aware also.

Do we think the Gestapo would have been reformed or less awful by wearing body cams? Of course not. This is Trumps militia of intimidation. There are already cameras everywhere. They are what they are. Body cameras won’t change anything. #Dontkidyourself #DefundIce
