Being diagnosed with 3rd stage
It seems like my doctor did not pick up on me having this sooner. Being diagnosed with 3rd stage made me nervous. afraid and angry. I already have life threatening disease and this addition did not help. I’ve done some research which makes my life that I have more livable. I’m so glad I found this forum don’t feel alone as much.
Hi
- my heart goes out to you. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for people with CKD to not be told that they have CKD until the later stages. Please know that your feelings are valid and it's important to give yourself space to process and feel all these emotions. I'm glad to hear that you're taking the time to do more research and exploring the community. You are not alone - the community is here for you 💚 Gentle hugs, Minel (Team Member)
