Worrying about my eating lately with CKD

I, too, can certainly relate! Is there some other way that you could reward yourself? For me it’s buying new clothes. This has the added benefit of making me trim down periodically so I can still fit in them but it might be something else that interests you. Treating yourself to a massage also comes to mind. Maybe there’s something that doesn’t cost anything too, such as going on a nature hike with a friend? Hugs to you!

This CKD was sprung on me about 3 1/2 years ago when I moved to NC. My first Dr. appointment and blood test told me I had stage 3 CKD. I wondered if my trip to FL. and not drinking water all that time would have caused it. then I got a copy of a test from my old doctor in Ohio and THERE IT WAS! The aide who had called me the results said everything was fine. After a while I called that dr. and he said he did not know I had CKD (there it was at the very bottom of the test copy. So that just told me he ordered tests and did not care to read them. Then after a little more time passed, I sent to the hospital in Ohio asking for 18 years of test results - after a couple months and quite a few dollars I got 3 packages of results from 3 doctors. ALL of the tests said stage 2 or 3 CKD. My mind was blown; I tried to get one of those doctors to talk with me and not one would. Then I tried an Ohio office of medical lawyers. Absolutely nothing could be done. I was not on a kidney diet then. Now I am trying to do so. However I ask you Is it necessary? I am 94 will be 95 in October.
