I used to believe that once you had chronic kidney disease then that

                 was it… you were pretty much stuck for life.


                 I thought there was not much you could do – except tweak it as best

                 you can and hope to goodness that it didn’t get worse.



                 Maybe you’ve heard the same.


                 I really believed it too.



                 But I don’t any more. 


                 Because of something my doctor showed me I now know there’s an

                 awful lot you can do to manage CKD – and what you can do turned

                 out to be literally life-changing.


                 CKD isn’t a life-sentence



                 I was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease – CKD – just over 2

                 years ago.


                 My doctor explained that there is a number of reasons why we get

                 CKD. But it was always caused by something else that was already

                 going wrong in the body.


                 Diabetes, heart disease, various cardiovascular diseases, being very

                 overweight and so on. They can all cause CKD.



                 High blood pressure was the cause of my CKD.


                 Your CKD may have a diyerent cause. But the result is the same.



                 My doctor told me that chronic kidney disease can’t be tackled
                 directly. Instead, doctors address the diseases that cause it in the

                 |rst place.



                 Which, for me, meant tackling my blood pressure problem.
