Why do folk medicine people say you have kidney disease if you wake up at 3am a lot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: They were right, as you loose kidney function ie if your blood tests reveal lower GFR , your kidneys loose the ability to concentrate urine and your blader gets full quickly and you may have to empty the bladder a few times at night , not particularly at 3 am!
