Hi @basslakebabe19, you'll notice that I moved your message to the Kidney & Bladder group https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/kidney-conditions/

It is shocking news to hear that you have stage 3 kidney disease. You're asking the right questions "how is it diagnosed? What specific blood tests reveal it, if any? What works for trying to reverse this diagnosis, or is it already too late?" and members here in this discussion and others can help, like @kamama94 @2011panc @rosemarya @gaybinator @trishanna @fiesty76 and others.

While we wait for other members to join the conversation, you may be also interested in these discussions:

Basslakebabe, have you made an appointment to see a specialist?
