Does End Stage Renal Failure From PKD Cause Severe Nausea?
I am in end stage renal failure from PKD. I was always athletic and have a good build, but now when I try to workout I get very nauseated and it stops me from working out any further. My own nephrologist says everyone is individual and it may be that I am just sensitive to the toxins running around me now. I have not started dialysis yet and am on the transplant list. Is this true? Do others experience this? Thanks

Hi
Thanks for your query
End stage renal disease from any cause can cause nausea. This happens when urea levels rise. Cutting back on the proteins may help as will the use of medications like pantoprazole and emeset.
If that does not help your doctor may advise dialysis
Hope this helps
Good luck
