    I'm not sure of the GFR or creatine levels, I had high potassium and calcium levels though. I go in for complete bloodwork tuesday the 7th and will get a printout sent to me.

      Good luck on that bro. They'll look at your gfr, your urea albumin, creatine levels and potassium/ sodium. With high potassium your kidneys are not filtering as they should. Dialysis would suck, especially if it could be avoided.

        Because of the dehydration I was in acute kidney failure. My kidneys are supposed to be back to 100 percent.

              That's cool. Do you know what made you so sick? Eating Dole salads? Listeria?

                I seen my primary yesterday. She said that it was a viral inflammation of the intestines that was what caused it. Okay

                  Sounds rough and hopefully once you get that resolved then your kidneys should recover (at least to some extent). When I had a stomach bug some years back I kept drinking water to stay hydrated...even forced myself to drink it.

                    After getting six bags of iv fluid in two days my kidneys were back to 100 percent according to the doctor.

                      That's great to hear and hopefully no lasting damage from that episode.
