Acute kidney disease

My husband has had blood tests done weeks ago by his upper GI consultant to check his ARLD .Waiting for results. She said if he isn't at cirrhosis yet she will refer back to GP.

He had more blood tests the following week to monitor his hypertension.

His results have indicated low BP and high cholesterol at risk of cardiovascular disease and acute kidney disease.

.His mobility is bad due to spinal fractures that won't heal due to lack of nutrient in his body.

He still drinks to excess and not eating or taking care of his appearance.

So much going on with his health, along with alcohol amnesia.

It seems his liver is holding out but his kidneys arent.

Does this resonate with anybody please?
