As you read this, 1.5 million Australians of all ages are experiencing kidney failure †failure that can lead to chronic kidney disease and the end of life as they know it. The alarming thing is: none of these people know that it’s happening, since you can lose up to 90% of your kidney function without any symptoms.
One of those 1.5 million Australians could be you… right now. You just don’t know it.
April 8-14 is Kidney Health Week 2019, a perfect time to remind all Australians not to be blind to kidney disease and the importance of undertaking a very simple online kidney risk test at www.kidney.org.au.
