Detoured on the way home from a meeting today to spot a couple of our @kidneycareuk.bsky.social #BloodyAmazingKidneys signs! Fantastic to see awareness of the impact of kidney disease being raised like this! 🀩

Yes. Yes he does. He looks very comfortable and like he’s absolutely NOT moving.

If I remember rightly this has taken place in Oxford in the past, as well as possibly at Salford. I don’t have a published reference to hand but I’ll come back to you about this.

Do I know anyone with experience of using a continuous glucose monitor? Are there any that are better than others? The Freestyle Libre says it can store up to 8hrs of data but does that mean you only have access to the last 8hrs of data at any one time? Are there any that track for longer?

πŸ“’Do you or a family member have #KidneyDisease, #HighBloodPressure or #Diabetes?

πŸ“’ We would like to hear about what information you have received about your #kidneys - what was good & what could be improved!

πŸ™ŒThank you!

This year’s #WorldKidneyDay campaign is excellent. Many patients have more than enough challenges to deal with in managing their illness, without adding assumptions and judgement into the equation.

Chuckling at the β€œnot quite an adult” face size! Reminds me of when I ordered my Medic Alert bracelet and they emailed me back to check I’d measured my wrist correctly. Apparently it wasn’t quite an adult either! πŸ˜‚

If you’re a kidney patient 18+ living in the UK please take a few minutes to complete the survey linked below. It will help us at @kidneycareuk.bsky.social know how to support you best. Thank you!

A starter pack? Do you mean some information for someone who is very newly diagnosed?
