IgA nephropathy: Brittany's 8-year journey to diagnosis, treatment and self-advocacy
Dee is joined by Brittany, who was diagnosed with IgA nephropathy in September 2024, following a kidney biopsy and years of uncertainty about her condition. Brittany discusses living with fatigue, protein in her urine, and the frustration of knowing something wasn't right, despite her kidney function remaining good. She also shares what she has learnt about the value of self-advocacy: asking questions, researching your condition using reliable resources, and finding the confidence to speak up about your care.
