Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

People with diabetes have high glycemia which makes the kidneys weak and prone to damage hence there is a direct relation between diabetes and kidney disease.

Dr. Yusuf Suggests...

Take a URINE FOR FAT GLOBULES Test or Take a NT-PRO BNP (N-TERMINAL PRO BRAIN NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE) Test
