I have had kidney stones but never diagnosed with kidney disease. I have bad itching and redness in my hands to which I have been to an alergist. Given I now know I have contact dermatitis and cannot use many products. I realize the poisons in our world eg, laundry dryer sheets, dyes, scented candles, many of the cleaning products, etc. I need to stay away from. I can only use certain moisturizers, I use the mildest childrens shampoo and body wash. I do watch my diet- eating alot less meats,more greens and vegies and fruits. I also get violent itching behind my knees and sometimes the rest of my body which seems to come and go. I also drink plenty of water. Not sure if I have a kidney issue but I have alot under control at this time. Very frustrating but keep looking at labels on foods and stay diligent on your search.
Thank you. Regrettably our products are full of irritants. We try but it’s almost impossible to remove all. Thanks again for your input.
My 45 year old daughter received a kidney in 2023, but it failed. Afterwards she suffered a stroke, which debilitated her physically, but emotionally she is the strongest human I’ve ever known. She has been on bedside dialysis in a SNF since discharge from the hospital. Before the dialysis was “dialed in” correctly at the SNF, she went through a period where she was unbearably itchy. We found that CeraVe Itch-Relief Moisturizing Lotion helped. The stores don’t always carry it so we’ve ordered it online. Her skin improved and we still keep it on hand.
