Are you at risk?
Diabetes
Uncontrolled diabetes or elevated sugar in your blood increases your risk of developing kidney disease.
High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure can put too much strain on your kidneys and cause damage. This damage can lead to chronic kidney disease over time.
Family History
Family history plays a significant role in contributing to the risk of getting chronic kidney disease. Anyone with a family history or who is over the age of 45 should take a test annually.
Age
The risk for kidney disease increases with age. This risk doubles from the age of 45 and increases sixfold by 65.
