Hi, i was told by my nephrologist in Los Angeles that my kidney is only 10% functioning, he says, this is not reversible and no medication to be taken for now. I am taking Renalog which was prescribed to me by my internist back in the Philippines, i asked my nephrologist if i can continue taking it and he says, its okay to continue taking it. I will see my nephrologist on October 11th which is 2 months from now for lab tests and kidney ultrasound. I would like to get second opinion if my nephrologist is correct that my kidney disease is irreversible? I would like to get better and i would like to know if there is a cure instead of waiting until my kidney disease gets bad. Please advise. Thank you!
