Doctor never told me

I was diagnosed with stage 3a CKD last fall, and I had no risk factors other than being 70, unless covid and long covid in 2023 slapped my kidneys around. I have met a nephrologist once so far, but no info on why, just drink 8 glasses or more of water a day. I already do all the diet/hydration, exercise, trying not to stress, and other kidney friendly stuff. Does stage 3a come with a bit of fatigue or dry eyes? I don't have other symptoms other than I can't handle 60 mi bike rides anymore (maybe 30 with a few naps in between).

I guess what upsets me more than anything is having a doctor know about it but doesn’t tell you this stage 3b could of been avoided are our primary doctors so narrow minded they don’t care about kidney disease think it’s time to get them on board or our of the profession.
