[QUOTE="whompa73, post: 438122, member: 79538"] Yes I think a forum where the issuse being discussed is of a real and pressent concern for many of the members is the exact place it should be discussed. As stated in the first post I am recently diagnosed stage 2 ckd and as having kidney dammage . I have infact this morning since the original post been to an appointment with the nurse to have the final urin test taken to find out if the meds are working and have helped/reversed the damage or if i will be seeing a specialist over it. also found out for the first time some of the numbers for the protein or Microalbuminuria which was 79 and not sure what the other number was I think she said ratio but may be confusing the 2 but was told it was off the chart so no value was given . So looking on the internet at these values it seems I may have a real problem. Hopefully I will have had a significant improvement since starting meds. I do however have to see the kidney specialists in december as they have found a growth on my kidney which they thought/think is cystic and hopefully not a problem but they sent the scans to the specialist who has said he thinks he needs to see me. I am, and have been for many years a registered donor (your apathy towards wanting to do it but not being bothered is your problem and not the problem of those who do not wish to donate but are forcibly being put on the list.
