Stage 3a kidney disease: looking for info

I was not told that I could improve the rate of deterioration of my remaining kidney by monitoring my diet and activities. I can’t understand why a patient is not advised to eliminate food that is harder for the kidneys to process in order to prolong the functioning of the kidney.

I was not told that I had kidney disease, even though one of my doctors wrote the diagnosis on some blood work that I had a few years back. Because nothing was said I assumed it was not serious or even something I should be concerned about. Or that the blood test was not to be trusted. Like you, I do not understand why doctors don't discuss "early stage" kidney disease with their patients. Do they think we don't have the strength of will to keep to diets? Do they believe that diets are useless? I notice that Farxiga seems to be making money with their purported medicine. There are so many questions.
