Let us know if there's anything else we can do to help and remember - you are not alone! Keep on keepin' on, DPM

  2. Hello. Tommyvess, remember that if you are not happy with your current care team, you can always select another provider. Also, google the stages of renal failure tabs that will be you some information to compare to labs and start conversations with your doctor.
