Cuba, Don't worry about it, keep your weight in check, eat healthily, drink plenty (of water)and watch your blood pressure. That sounds like a lot to do, but it's not. Most of it is common sense anyway when we get to a certain age. I had a kidney removed just over 10 years ago, and have been CKD 3 ever since. It has never been an issue and has not affected my lifestyle, providing I do what I've advised you to do. If you're prescribed BP and cholesterol tablets, like many of us on here are, they will help keep everything in check. I had a minor scare with (remaining) kidney function at the beginning of this year, but that was all sorted out and I feel very, very well. Enjoy your life. Good luck. Hi , I feel like saying "congratulations" simply because you're the first person I met (knowingly) that also has this diagnosis. Yes, I'm mindful of what I eat and yes, I made an effort with my weight during the last couple of months and it's down almost a stone. Medication yes. Walk every day (as against those who drive everywhere). Been stuck with an old bag for 28 yrs, (not er'indoors) but a real life bag for bladder. Old limbs ache when I do anything strenuous. |
