Hi, thanks for that website. I did look at it and have no idea what the result meant though. This is the part that scares me though. Mine was 74. Falls under the kidney damage with mild kidney function. Could this explain my fluid retention? Since I take Cortef now 3 times a day, is that putting more of a burden on my kidneys? So no more nsaids? I like naproxen, for when my knots flare up. Why didn't the doc say anything about this? Should I be worried?
