The Kidney Hypothetical: Or How to Ruin Your Life in Seven Days | 
I am looking for recommendations about people with kidney problems. Since the beginning of this middle finger year, I've gone through kidney disorder that just won't quit; and I'd like to read about some other people. Any books sent this way will be most appreciated.

haileybean @NovelGirl82, I have Minimal Change Disease. I was diagnosed back in February and have relapsed twice. This is the last time I can be on steroids. So I'm looking for ANY kind of good information. 8y
haileybean Thanks @BookishMarginalia and @DebinHawaii for the hugs 🤗 8y
EloisaJames Just s thought--my daughter has chronic kidney disease and it has helped incredibly to drop red meat dnc go mostly vegetarian.. Drs thought it would do anything g but they've eaten their words! 8y
haileybean @EloisaJames actually, I am a vegetarian. That's one thing that's been helpful because I've been put on and off of a low sodium diet. Cutting out meat hasn't been an issue. 8y
NovelGirl82 Have they tried other immunosuppressants? Why are they saying that this is the last time that you can be on steroids? 8y
haileybean No, I've only been on steroids + other medications to combat the side effects of them. I haven't tried any other medications. The Nephrologist said we can only do steroids so many times and that after the initial diagnosis + 2 relapses that we'd try transplant medications, which sounds terrifying. 8y
