What vitamins or herbs helped you?

I'm a 53yr mother, Grammy and wife.. I have a few health issues (chronic pancreatitis, thyroid, COPD) I've been dealing with stage 3b kidney function for a few years and recently diagnosed with PK kidney disease. I eat super healthy and maintain a good weight. I'm not on any medications for this disease. Having a hard time bc so many things are okay for one illness but not the other. I'm exhausted, severe chronic pain in lower back, side, headaches, urinary problems. Time seems to be fly by to fast and I just want to enjoy everyday with my family, sadly I miss out sometimes bc I feel so sick... Any suggestions?? Thank you!

  1. Hi , thank you for your question! It can be quite difficult to manage multiple health conditions, especially when they're making you miss out on family things. Fatigue can be really tough. I hope some people might be able to share what herbs or vitamins work for them. Of course, everyone's experiences may differ and we do suggest reaching out to your doctor first before making major changes to your management plan for your safety. In the meantime, here are a few articles you might be interested in: https://chronic-kidney-disease.net/fatigue & https://chronic-kidney-disease.net/treatment. I hope this may help.
