Yes, his doctor checks his kidneys on a regular basis. He has been diabetic for 10 years now and has been under constant doctor's care (Endocrinologist) since. The only reason I asked the question was because of the article I read saying, "too much protein may cause kidney stones." What I was actually asking was....How much protein is "too much." That's what I'm not sure of. I know it depends on the person, their weight/size, the amount of calories consummed a day, etc., but I was just looking for a ballpark figure of "too much." 
Thanks for your post, Rosie. I appreciate all the replies.  |
