What Are the Symptoms of Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3

  What Are the Symptoms of Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3
  What are the symptoms of chronic kidney disease stage 3? In stage 3, the GFR(glomerular filtration rate), a very important reference to present the damage degree in kidney, falls to as low as 30 to 59 ml/min, the normal range of which is 80 to 120 ml/min. Creatinine and urea acid can also be high, which lead to the following symptoms:
  1. high blood pressure
  Once kidney is damaged, it can not discharge out the sodium and water, which leads to the retention of water and sodium, thus increasing the blood content and leading to high blood pressure.
  2. anemia
  On one hand, the generation of red blood cells decreases. Because kidney function is damaged, the EPO in kidney disease will produce less, thus leading to anemia. On the other hand, in stage 3 kidney disease, a lot of toxic materials accumulates, which leads to the damage to the red blood cells and the inhibition of hematopoietic function is also damaged. Shortened lifespan of red blood cells leads to anemia.
  3. feeling tired
  Feeling tired or fatigue is common which is usually caused by long time anemia for stage 3 chronic kidney disease patients for there are so many toxins in the body which should have been discharged out of the body.
  4. edema or dropsy or swelling
  Filtering blood is one important function of kidney. After filtered and the reabsorption in renal tubules, excessive water in the body will be discharged out of the body, thus causing retention of water, which can be called edema or dropsy or swelling in clinic.
  5. Urination changes: Urine may be foamy if there is protein in it, or dark orange, brown, tea colored or red if it contains blood. A person may urinate more or less, or get up at night to go to the bathroom.

  6. Protein in urine or red blood cells in urine, the urine of which can be called proteinuria or hematuria, both of which are caused by the damage of renal glomerular basilar membrane for in it, there are pores, through which, red blood cells and protein can leak when it is damaged.www.kidneytcm.com
