How does a person with chronic kidney disease (CKD) feel?

Most people may not have serious symptoms until their kidney disease progresses.

However, you may notice that:

• You feel weak and tire easily
• You are less resistant to infections (you get ill more easily)
• You find it difficult to concentrate and remember things
• Your appetite lessens and you have problems sleeping
• You experience menstrual abnormalities, decreased sexual desire or impotence
• You get cramps in your muscles, usually at night
• Your feet swell and you have rough skin on them
• You itch a lot
