@jjeffries71 welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I have stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) so I follow discussions in the Kidney & Bladder Group. I know a bit about PKD and your question caught my attention. Have you discussed your concerns with the provider that diagnosed you? More importantly how are you feeling? Have you required any treatment yet?

I have and they didn't have a really good answer. I am in stage 3 so I'm still not feeling to many of the affects yet. Just the normal pain in the flanks and sides. I have 10cm cysts on each kidney that are causing some pain, and not allowing me to sleep comfortably anymore. I started Jynarque and was a year into thing it. Had to go off as I had to have surgery(not related to pkd). I see my Nephrologist in a couple weeks and will be back on it. At Mayo next week though as they are the best. Hopefully a few better answers and possible a little relief. Thanks for reaching out.
