That was what made the diagnosis for my loved one.  Kidneys were failing but he has the non-secretory type, so it was hard to find out what was causing the renal failure. The standard tests show nothing, but kidney function was not good and Ca+ was over 15 when they admitted him. 

Happy 4th and take time to really appreciate the time with those we all love.  Anita

This product sounds really fantastic and although I don't need it at this point, I am starting to have kidney stones which is probably the start of kidney disease associated with my MM, so I'm going to file this site for future reference should I ever need it!!  Thanks for bringing it to our attention!!  This is one of the wonders of this message board -- learning about all sorts of innovations before we actually have the need to use them!! 

Hope you all had a wonderful July 4th!  Cheers, Cath
