As someone living w/ kidney failure, I want to stress the importance of understanding kidney health, especially for African Caribbean communities who are at higher risk. Recognising the warning signs & taking prompt action can prevent serious complications
Kidney disease is common in African Caribbean communities. If you have fatigue, low appetite, swollen ankles, or changes in urination, ask your GP for a kidney test Regular check-ups and listening to your body can prevent complications π« #KidneyHealth
