Kidney Disease and ANEMIA

❌ 𝐀𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐊𝐢𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞:
When you have kidney disease, your kidneys cannot make enough EPO.
Low EPO levels cause your red blood cell count to drop and anemia to develop.
Most people with kidney disease will develop anemia.
Anemia can happen early in the course of kidney disease and grow worse as kidneys fail and can no longer make EPO.

❌ 𝐀𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐚 𝐒𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐬:
● Easy fatigue and loss of energy.
● Unusually rapid heart beat, particularly with exercise.
● Shortness of breath and headache, particularly with exercise.
● Difficulty concentrating.
● Dizziness.
● Pale skin.
● Leg cramps.
● Insomnia.

✅ 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧-𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐚 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝?
Yes. This type of anemia can be treated and cured.
First, your healthcare provider will determine if the anemia is being caused by a poor diet or by a more serious health problem.
Then you can be treated for both the anemia and its cause.
Iron-deficiency anemia can be treated with iron supplements taken by mouth, or by eating foods that are high in iron.
