Can you tell me if there are early tests to detect kidney failure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Blood tests and imaging can pick up signs of kidney dysfunction before one has any symptoms. See you doctor for that. I have posted some more detailed info on my blog at http://www.Kidneydoctorbradenton.Org/2013/03/how-do-physicians-check-your-kidneys.Html.
