[New post] I’ve been diagnosed with CKD Stage 3. But I don’t have any of the typical symptoms listed. No blood in my urine, no frequent urinating, no foamy urine. I do get tired easily but I’m a 75 yo female. I have back pain occasionally around the waist area. But was told to avoid foods with potassium which the list included potatoes & yogurt which I love but really don’t eat that often. I also have IBS. I guess my question is could the lab results be wrong if I don’t have the usual symptoms I mentioned above.
