question: XXXXX, MD Kidney value is 6.5 and going up before hospitalization kidney value is 5.7! Taking bumex 1 MG and 1/2 MG within a few days of hospitalization...not turning around had a pic nurse video for a vein . Getting bi carb solution at a 40 rate. Received some LASIK about 1/2 hour ago. What could the kidney doctor do to help reduce kidney value. Doctor is saying the bumex caused him to be dehydrated but now not dehydrated only kidney value going up.
