My CKD JOURNEY

I’ve had kidney stone surgery 3 times, lithotripsy, stents, and passed them! I’ve lived with extremely high blood for many years and taken many meds over the years to try to keep it down! I had thyroid cancer 8 years ago where my vocal cords were paralyzed during surgery, sending my blood pressure out of sight! During that time my endocrinologist found my stage 3 CKD! I’m now 8n Stage 4 and I also have coronary artery disease!
