Excessive Fatigue, Renal Kidney Insufficiency. Reason Of Fatigue?

I have excessive fatigue. I will sleep for 10-12 hours and wake up tired. I have renal kidney insufficiency. My creatinine was 2.6 the last time I had blood work. I went to a sleep center and it isn t sleep apnea or anything related to that. Do you have any thoughts as to whether or not it is the renal insufficiency that is causing the excesssive fatigue and lack of energy. My doctor tried to prescribe Nuvegil but I had adverse reactions.

Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
I can understand your concern.

Your basic kidney problem could be the cause of your excessive fatigue. One of the various causes of fatigue in renal insufficiency is anemia among other factors.

Various factors of renal insufficiency should be considered to come out of that problem.
