My Dr. told me I have CKD but really nothing more about what I need to do! She said I was stage 3?

    1. When I was in the hospital for extremely low sodium level in my blood, I had a consultation with a Nephrologist. She is now my doctor. That’s when I was diagnosed with Stage 3 kidney disease. I hope you can get an appointment with a kidney doctor. They are very knowledgeable about kidney problems.

  2. Thank you so much!
