I'm really worried because my blood creatinine level is 5.91mgdl and I've been told that both my kidneys have shrunk in size. I've got normal blood pressure and sugar levels, and I don't have any major diseases, but I've been feeling a lot of bone pain. The doctor mentioned that my kidney function is down to about 50% and gave me some medication to try for a month before deciding if I'll need dialysis. I'm really frustrated with all of this and would love some advice on what I should do next or if there's anything else I can try.
