from Kidney Wellness with Dr. Bismah · host Bismah Irfan, MD
Have you ever left your doctor’s office with "normal" lab results, yet you’re still struggling with crushing fatigue, brain fog, or persistent swelling?In this episode, Dr. Bismah breaks down the dangerous gap between "Normal" and "Optimal" kidney health. We reveal why the standard blood tests used worldwide—Creatinine and eGFR—are lagging indicators that often miss kidney decline until 40% of function is already gone.Using a real-world case study of a patient who was dismissed by three specialists despite a 16-point drop in her kidney function, we explore the hidden markers that reveal the real story of your health. If you’ve been told "everything looks fine" but your body is telling you otherwise, this episode is your roadmap to being your own health advocate.Follow & Subscribe:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KidneyHealthMD Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/kidney.healthmd/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drbismah/ Website: https://www.drbismah.com/about/ ⚠️ Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only.
