Has anyone other than me tried Tumeric to reduce the inflammation? It seems to do the trick. I am level 3 CKD.

I been on for 8 years... 2 fitulas, had a permacath once as well. Dialysis will take the fluid from your legs in time and I don't know why you're taking a water pill with CKF.

What Stage is your KD in? Mine is Stage 3 and I had so much swelling in my legs and feet that I had to have a vascular procedure done called a vein ablation. It did help the edema but not the leg aches.
