Yearly physicals should be a requirement to have health insurance. You’d think it’d save insurance companies in the long run because little things would get caught before they turn into big issues plus a more educated health conscious population as a whole. shyts free on most insurance plans. Go get one
Had no idea what dialysis was til this thread
Ignorance truly is bliss. Mom's had kidney failure due to hypertension. I never saw her drink alcohol a day in my life. Funny thing is one of her quotes growing up was "drink water and flush your kidneys out"
She'd say that shyt everytime we asked for kool-aid or pop. So my siblings and I would say it to each other to tease whenever we's ask for drinks. I would've never guessed she woulda passed from kidney failure.
Hypertension is a bytch .it's gonna kill me too.
Yes it is. It's how I'm gonna die. Hypertension is a bytch. Strokes. Kidney failure lots of stuff.

I never and I mean NEVER want to ever go through what Freeway is dealing with. I was already born with cerebral palsy and as I get older I worry about my health b/c I really care. I don't smoke because I already have asthma and I don't drink either. My only issue is junk food and fast food. I do exercise because of my disability. I really am tired of fast food b/c it's expensive and it doesn't fill you up then they give you those big ass drinks (I pour most of it down the drain).
Another thing that hasn't been mentioned is that a lot of these medicines we get prescribed by the doctor can work on the organs as well. When I use to ride the paratransit bus I use to see so many people going to or coming from dialysis. Not fun to see.

It doesn't matter when sugar is in everything we get or drink. I just exercise 3 days a week and stay trying to drink plenty water. I don't do any soda.

That’s a scary sight
You can eat right exercise and still get it. Mostly every black person I know over 50 has hypertension
I know. Even when I feel good I feel bad. Being black in America is some straight up bullshyt everyday.

bow down
its not genetic it's the toxic environment we live in and the toxic foods that we consume. its just convenient to blame everything on genetics when doctors don't have the answers or don't want to reveal the true causes.
especially if you're black, the added stress of being terrorized everyday by white supremacy from day one of birth; ain't no tellin what effects that has on health.
Foods high in Vitamin D: eat Mushrooms
Foods high in Iron: dark leafy green veggies (kale, chard, collard greens, dandelion greens)
Black folks have the highest rate of death from Kidney failure and various cancers while showing no signs of danger throughout our lives.
We are also the most deficient of Vitamin D due to obvious reasons.

It’s both. Epigentics plays a role and our environment also plays a role. To prevent disease and maintain a high quality of life for a long period of time, we have to understand what we are more genetically susceptible to

That "lump" on his arm is a hemodialysis av fistula.
It's used to connect a patient to the dialysis machine.
The machine basically acts as a filter in place of the damaged or absent kidneys.
