Your energy levels can change when you have kidney disease, and each day may look a little different. Understanding your energy level can help you find things to do—even when your energy is lower.
Understanding how you feel
Think about how you feel throughout your day on a scale of 1 to 10.
Use these questions to help you identify your energy level:
- What does a high-energy day look like?
- What does a low-energy day look like?
- What activities can I do based on my energy level?
