    Primary Doctors get those tests , but then do nothing for patient because most dont even read your blood tests, [doctor assistant just said i was "dehydrated" ]until patient has symptoms and patient insists on doctor doing something about it. My GFR went from 57 to 38 in less than a year, creatinine, creatinine kinase, urea, urate, and luekocytes all way beyond above normal levels in less than a year. I suddenly felt nauseous vomiting and dizzy like was in an elevator.

    This is very valuable information. I’m grateful to each one of you for your generosity and kindness. My brother was just diagnosed with kidney problems. He’s at level 5, he will be starting dialysis very soon. But, he had a heart attack, so he has a weak heart and he’s diabetic, high blood pressure and cholesterol. Is there any way he can get some supplies for PD? He lives in Mexico.

    Do you think if a person has stage 5 kidney failure and they go to dialysis three times a week for the past 2 years, do you think they can reverse the kidney failure or that's it right there

    C3G really changes your life, it changed me, it changed the people around me and how they treated me, it changed everything. I have a routine appointment at the GN clinic at Toronto General hospital in Just 4 days. After the age of 16 i developed severe anxiety and depression, started getting addicted to self harm and tried to attempt suicide but thats something most people fail at. Im ok now but i know patients like me just need to hang in there and try to keep a healthy lifestyle. I hope you are in a better place now than the one you might have been in when you were diagnosed. I wish you good health and good luck.

    I try my best to take part in research and help raise awareness about this disease and similar conditions. I also use social media to the best of my ability. I thank you for sharing your story with the public, ive shared my story too when i was still being treated in Canada at SickKids but now im being treated at Toronto General Hospital after turning 18.

    Im still trying to learn more about my condition and longterm health concerns. My doctors say im stable but if i was to have kidney failure, it would be 10 years down the road. I think what scares me is that i will get sick at a point in my life where i will have less help from family, more responsibilities and more lifestyle related issues. Have your doctors discussed renal failure concerns with you over the years.

    I have C3GN and was diagnosed at the age of 9 in Jan 2014. Since then I've been put through a lot of treatments, renal biopsies, clinical trials and routine hospital visits. It has now in 2024 been 10 years since I was diagnosed and still I have not reached ESRD, but my nephrologist says if i was to experience renal failure, it would be 10 more years down the road based on my current health.

    20 Year old with Castleman disease with kidney failure here. I was scared for the treatment. I saw this video before i started my dialysis and it helped me calm down. When i started the treatment it went somewhat wrong and i was feeling sick and vomiting every time they started the machine within 10 minutes. So i was hooked up to an ICU dialysis machine which took over double the time 8-10 hours. But eventually it got better and i managed the normal machine. Now a year later, my kidnes started to work again and my values are almost back to normal. Free healthcare in my country aswell was fantastic. Thank you for producing this video for me and for everyone.
