One Patient’s Discovery
There really is new research on Minimal Change Disease treatments.
I didn’t learn to ride a bike until I was embarrassingly old. Shame kept me stuck for years - until one day, I dragged my brother’s rusted old bike up a dirt hill and just went for it. Turns out, if you wait long enough, some things do get easier.
Minimal Change Disease isn’t like that.
I've had it for over 10 years. I’ve relapsed three times. I’ve tried nearly every treatment option out there. And honestly? It never felt like it was getting easier.
Until it did.
You Might Be Like Me
If you’re reading this, I’ll bet:
- You’ve had MCD for a while.
- You see your nephrologist every few months like clockwork.
- You do your bloodwork on time.
- You prepare questions, stay informed, and leave appointments thinking, “So… nothing new?”
I thought Minimal Change Disease research was slow - maybe even nonexistent.
Then I actually looked.
What I Found Blew Me Away
Every month, over 30 new studies are published on Minimal Change Disease treatments.
That’s not a typo. Thirty. Every month.
If you see your nephrologist twice a year, that’s 180 studies between appointments. My doctor never brought them up. Yours might not either. And honestly? Reading them yourself is brutal. That would take you upwards of 45 hours to read them all.
So I Built What I Wish Existed
I started summarizing new research - just for myself at first. Then I shared it with a few other MCD patients. They loved it.
Now, every month I send out a report with:
In fact, several readers have printed the report and used it to adjust their treatment plans.
What’s the Catch?
You still have to read (a little). And while we can’t promise your nephrologist is as up-to-date as you’ll be after subscribing, many of our readers simply print out their report and bring it to appointments. It’s 100% free to try. Just click below to get started. Cancel anytime.
What does it cost after the free trial?
It’s $10/month. Not free, but absolutely worth it. Subscriptions to journals like The Journal of Nephrology and Oxford Academic can cost over $50/month each. Add in the time spent digging through research, translating medical jargon, and figuring out what actually matters to you, and you’re looking at a part-time job.
If you want to stay informed without the stress, this is for you. And right now, for Kidney Disease Awareness Month, you can lock in a lifetime price of just $5/month - but only through July.
