Ive been taking protein powder for 3 years and the my side started to hurt so i went to the doctors. After some tests, the doctor said Protein powder was causing my kidney's to fail??? She said i need to stop taking it or it'll get worse. Is this even possible? My life without protein powder is incomplete and meaningless. This is a weight lifter's nightmare. Im only 18, and the protein i use is Gold standard.

Incomplete and meaningless OP? Ha ha...
At 18 and a buck sixty-six I somehow doubt you've ingested enough protein in your life to have caused kidney failure. I'm guessing all your friends have some muscle and you are just a little butt hurt over it cuz you don't have the work ethic and "kidneys" to compete with them.
Am I right?In need of a new sig crew...

OP srs though. You're using one of the highest quality protein drinks on the market. ON is one of only a few companies that handles the entire process beginning to end. If you really are having these issues I'd have your doctor run different tests because there's about a 99% chance this has nothing to do with your protein. Do you take any other supplements?
