What Causes Sudden Stage 4 Kidney Disease?

I am just looking for any interactions with meds I have been prescribed and trying to figure out5 why I suddenly have stage 4 kidney disease when I don t have any of the typical problems associated with kidney disease - i.e. diabetes, never have smoked and have no heart problems. My kidney specialist is puzzled, as am I.

Welcome at HCM
I appreciate your health concerns...
Stage 4 kidney disease doesn't come abruptly. You need to be assessed properly by the nephrologist to find the exact cause.
Right now aim should be to maintain the fluid homeostasis and proper excretion .
You may require dialysis.
Maintain proper followup
Hope it helps
