Hello Ms. XXXXXXX

Thank you for posting your query.

Chronic Kidney Disease stage-3B should not be responsible for your symptoms. However some medications may lead to similar symptoms.

Other than CKD, do you have any other coexisting illnesses? Any medications you are on? What brings on or relieves these symptoms? Any recent new meds and blood pressure readings?

Please get back to me with the answers so that I can suggest better.

Awaiting your response.

regards.
