Does kidney disease cause nausea?

Question

For quite some time now, I've been feeling nauseous almost daily, sometimes even losing my appetite. My sister told me it could be related to kidney issues. Is nausea a common symptom of kidney disease?

Rahul Verma · Accepted Answer

Oh god, even a little nausea makes me panic and Google for hours. But yes, kidney issues can cause nausea because toxins build up in the body instead of getting filtered out. Please don't stress too much but definitely get a doctor to look into it soon.

I've been feeling so sick to my stomach lately and I'm really scared it is my kidneys. Has anyone else here experienced constant morning nausea before getting diagnosed? Let me know, I am planning to see a doctor this weekend.

Yes, it absolutely does. Just two months back I was feeling constantly nauseous and thought it was food poisoning, but my doctor ran tests and found a kidney infection. Once the treatment started, the sick feeling totally went away.

Look boss, simple logic. When kidneys are not working, all the dirt stays in the body, so obviously you will feel nauseous and throw up. Don't sit at home reading online, go to a lab and get a KFT done today itself.

I am not a doctor, but from what I have read while managing my own health issues, nausea is a very common signal when our internal systems are overloaded. It is best not to self-diagnose and just get your kidney values checked by a professional.
