The following symptoms, however, are indicative of the onset of kidney disease: tiredness, loss of energy, a poor appetite, difficulty sleeping, muscle cramps (especially at night), swelling in the feet and ankles, puffiness around the eyes (especially in the morning), dry/itchy skin, and the need to urinate often (especially at night).
Symptoms include • Swelling over face and feet • Reduced Urine Output • Red colored urine • Frequent night time urination • Loss of appetite • Nausea, vommitting • Anemia Remember, these symptoms do not appear till 90% of the kidney functions are lost !!
