A member asked:
What can be the cause of kidney failure when no symptoms are present?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Two leading causes:: Diabetes and high blood pressure are the two leading causes of kidney failure. With acute diabetes, a person may notice excessive hunger, excessive thirst and excessive urination. But often, it just creeps up! Most people with high blood pressure have no symptoms at all. So see your doctor for blood tests, a urinalysis, and a physical examination. Early diagnosis matters! LGromkoMD
