A member asked:

Myoglobin high. drk brown urine. dr said myositis. if kidneys ok at discharge is there a good chance they will stay ok or would damage be delayed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No damage: By the time you get discharged, there is no longer any danger to the kidneys from the effects of muscle injury. Drink plenty fluids, get a follow up blood test to check the kidney function. A normal serum creatinine is proof that there is nothing to worry about.
