A member asked:
I was in intensive care with kidney failure 48 days was it kidney stones that caused it or was the extent of alcohol use or both?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: There is a looong laundry list of things that can lead to kidney failure. Only the physician who took care of you in the ICU and knows the circumstances can tell what lead to the problem.
