A member asked:
Can not fasting before a blood test show results of acute kidney failure & i'm scheduled for another test that i will fast for amen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your kidney failure may be something as simple as the transient effect of a painkiller such as ibuprofen, or something as troublesome as interstitial nephritis due to the medicine you are taking for your mood. Or there may be a lab error. Hoping you get a good outcome.
