But I think I really effed up my kidneys. After the Advil I took this morning I got so lightheaded brushing my teeth I had to kneel on the floor so I wouldn't pass out. Then I almost passed out again half an hour later. My pulse is currently 93 and I'm just sitting in bed. I'm also still dealing with the congestion from covid and I have post nasal drip that feels like its just clogging up my throat and the congestion is making my face hurt. I mean I feel better overall then how I have been feeling, but I don't know what sort of damage I've done with all this Advil these last 6 months.
@Mountaindewed I hope everything turns out okay with your kidneys. I also hope you start feeling better. I was on a medication that started doing damage to my kidneys. They took me off and the function has improved. I understood that you don’t get kidney function back once you lose it but apparently mine did.
