I understand diet is very important, I have made lists of food to take for CKD and foods to avoid. The complication comes when you have several diagnoses and try to follow a diet for each of them. I’ve made a similar list for AMD, Sjogrens disease, SLE, and others. It gets confusing! Sometimes a nutritionist might be needed. Good luck, Kathalina!🩷
A GFR (glomerular filtration rate) of 83, measured using the CKD-EPI 2021 equation, falls into Stage 2 chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is considered mildly reduced kidney function (range: 60–89).
Here's a quick breakdown of what that means:
- Stage 1: GFR 90+ (normal or high, but with signs of kidney damage)
- Stage 2 Show Full Answer
@A MyLupusTeam Member Check out the website for the American Kidney Fund. They might break down the information better for you. Buenos noches.💜
@A MyLupusTeam Member yes, i was reading some information but Is dificult to understand.
@A MyLupusTeam Member, are you at stage 2 now? Check some CKD diet books. Our diet makes a remarkable difference in stabilizing kidney function. Stay hydrated and hopeful..💜🙏🏾
