About this episode

Cassandra discusses her experience with medical anxiety after discovering high protein levels in her urine and shares insights on kidney health and self-advocacy.

Cassandra recently learned that she has a high level of protein in her urine. After leaving her doctor's appointment with more questions than answers, she found herself dealing with growing medical anxiety. In this conversation, she shares what her doctor told her, the research she did to better understand her test results, and what she's learned about protein in the urine, kidney health, and advocating for yourself when navigating uncertain medical news.
