Hello. I'm not on dialysis, and plan on keeping myself stage 3 or above so dialysis is not an issue i need to face. i have the foods i can eat watching protein, sodium, potassium. Anyone else here in the same boat? just wondered how you're doing and any help you can give me, i'd certainly appreciate it. thank you in advance

    You and I are in the same boat!!! I just had a kidney removed due to cancer and now find out my other kidney isn't doing so well. GFR - 33. It is scarey!!!! Sometimes hard to sleep!! I see my nephrologist 6/17. I saw a nutritionist the otherday and am starting on a renal diet. I hope we can encourage eachother!!!
