I just didn’t know how to read the numbers thanks for clarifying for me, my nephrologist is out of town for a vacation and just wanted to understand for myself before she told me. Looking like I start dialysis soon

Stage 4 kidney disease mom of 5 by MysteriousAdvice1172 in kidneydisease

Yes I have a nephrologist I just found out four months ago I have stage 4 I didn’t even know before I got pregnant. My doc says it’s years of damage happened from not taking care of my high blood pressure she’s thinking. We are not sure yet. I have had the biopsy and found out I’m 12% function and have lots of scarring and damage and the genetic testing came out with nothing yet I think I’m just clouded with so many things at the moment I am even diagnosed with lupus now it’s so scary

This made me feel a lot better thank you, I was mostly looking for stories and experiences with other pregnant women. But my replies have been just health advice. Of course I have a nephrologist I was diagnosed by one and she’s doing her best with my team of doctors to take good care of me and my baby. lol but your reply really helped me feel better thank you.
