Kidney disease can have a real impact on your everyday life. What are the biggest things you’ve had to change? How have you coped with those changes?
I was diagnosed last year, stage 3B. The biggest changes that I have made to date is gave up drinking alcohol, was never a big drinker to start with and I have gave up drinking fizzy Juice (pop) now I am focusing on chocolate and crisps. I find doing one step at a time helps and easier to micromanage rather than trying to do all at once. I’m still learning what I can and cannot have, as there is lots of conflicting info out there.

Reducing alcahol and red meat intake. Trying not to feel guilty when I do have these, as otherwise it can feel like existing rather than living
