I will have to ask if he is anephrologist. He must be because that is all he does. He specializes in everything kidney. I did send the links that Tink posted to my Mom. She was shocked. She had no idea kidneys did all that. She thought that as long as she peed fine, they were fine. Little did she know......

Janet, I'm glad those links helped. Sadly, we often don't know the importance of things until we're at risk of losing them.

I hope she's more willing to do what ever needs to be done now to protect her health while she still has the chance to.
