Common Symptoms of Stage 3 Kidney Disease

Kidney diseases are ascertained by the stage of development in which they surface, and there are 5 such stages that are medically classified. Stage 5 is the most dangerous and offers absolutely no hope of recovery, while the others are less intense. When a medical expert checks the kidney functionality of a human being, he checks the blood for levels of Creatinine. Creatinine is a material that is released by muscles of the body when they break down or are experiencing some problems.

need to urinate frequently, especially at night (nocturia);
swelling of the legs and puffiness around the eyes (fluid retention);
high blood pressure;
fatigue and weakness (from anemia or accumulation of waste products in the body);
