Suggest Treatment For Edema In The Leg And Shortness Of Breath

I had a blood test a few months ago, and my doctor said my kidneys were weak but still functioning. I have had edema in my right leg, and shortness of breath, recently. I'm beginning to thinking that my kidneys may be failing. I also heard that kidney problems can cause calcification in the lungs making breathing difficult.
