    More than 30M Americans have some stage of kidney disease, making it the 9th leading cause of death in the U.S. We can – and MUST – do more. Changing the way we prevent, detect & treat this disease will be a game-changer!

        Excited about this new @HHSgov initiative & the work of @SecAzar, @SeemaCMS & @AdamCMMi to incentivize the prevention and treatment of kidney disease, as well as life-saving transplants. Together, we are prioritizing kidney HEALTH!

        Unfortunately more chronic pain pts are in this category since their narcotic medication was dropped and told to take more ibuprofen.

        Doctors need to take CKD seriously and tell patients when they have it. I’ve seen people whose lab values clearly show kidney damage but there is no diagnosis. Further kidney damage can be prevented or slowed with diet and proper treatment.

        Instead our pain is not controlled and we continue to use damaging OTCs!

        I would reduce kidney and liver disorders, by returning safer opiate tx to the chronically ill. Our organs already stressed with toxic meds. @tylenol and other NSAIDS cannot full that gap. Want to improve kidney health? Stop pimping mega-dose toxin!https://www.acsh.org/news/2019/07/08/need-general-surgery-ignore-surgeon-general-14135 …

        Agree. Starting with kind of food and drinks you take. Do these industries even listen? Who would benefit from this situations? Of course; doctors, pharma, medical devices company, advert company, politicians. Some become looser and some gainers.
