What are symptoms of Symptoms of stage 3 kidney disease?
1. Changes in Urination
Urine may be foamy or bubbly.
You may urinate more often, or in greater amounts than usual, with pale urine.
2. Swelling
Failing kidneys don't remove extra fluid, which builds up in your body causing swelling in the legs, ankles, feet, face, and/or hands.

Healthy kidneys make a hormone called erythropoietin (a-rith'-ro-po'-uh-tin), or EPO, that tells your body to make oxygen-carrying red blood cells.
4. Leg/Flank Pain
The most common causes of CKD do not cause any pain. And, much of the pain that is near the kidneys isnot caused by a kidney problem. But some people who have CKD do have pain.
5.Nausea and Vomiting
A severe build-up of wastes in the blood (uremia) can also cause nausea and vomiting. Loss of appetite can lead to weight loss.
