In one post you telling him to go to the doctor "NOW" and then in this post you're saying he shouldn't listen to his doctor!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!   ::)

Initially I thought he should, but he seems to be more intent on listening to everyone else instead of using his own intuition.

I don't go on forums to ask people what I should do about medical issues.
 :P

For anyone who was curious, a biopsy revealed that I have FSGS (focal segmental glomerular sclerosis) which is can be a progressive disease, though the doc is hopeful.  It has been ruled primary or idiopathic meaning they have no idea what caused it. Its typically found mostly in blacks (I'm white), IV heroin users (I've never touched it), and/or HIV patients (My tests are clean). I'm wondering now if the ug gear I've used in the past contained toxins which caused this.

how big are you? Weight.....

My brother is on dialysis and has been for over a yr waiting on a transplant..Never done AAS, never took protein shakes or ate high volumes of meat or anything. He noticed he wasn't peeing as much as he was, and then it got clear and clearer...Was told it hereditary

Another friend is pushing the envelope with having to be on dialysis due to years abuse of dbol and fat burners...He's 5'8 and 265lbs. He was eating a minimum of 400G of protein ED...He has been on med's for over a year now trying to heal what has been torn and hoping and praying he doesn't end up like my brother and others

Ummmmm 5'8 265lbs and eating tons of dbol = HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE!  STEROIDS don't cause kidney damage.  Neither does high protein intake.  But weighing 265 lbs, abusing dbol, and eating 400g of protein nonstop will definitely cause high blood pressure WHICH DOES DAMAGE KIDNEYS!  Sorry but your friend is an idiot.
