Chronic kidney disease & mental health

Chronic kidney disease & mental health

hello everyone

i have found some information on the sane forum for Kidney disease and mental health

i thought i was feeling ok with being diagnosed with kidney dease stage 4 with only one kidney

which means my only one kidney is working at 21%

now my specialist is wanting me to register to go on the kidney transplant

I am feeling so tired and sometimes it is hard to keep on keeping on

i am feeling soo many emotions at the moment

i have forms to get started to go on the list for a transplant

i also have diabetes which makes it hard and sometimes feeling overwhelmed

my mr shaz wants to be a living donor , he will have to go through the same tests as me

@Shaz51

So glad that kidney is stable and you are not in a dire health emergency. It was worrying.

Do what you have to do dietwise. I am trying to remember not to buy things with salt and tomato. With any change in eating and buying habits, it takes time.

Hugs
