thanks for the choosing healthcaremagic.I am happy to know that you are worried about effects of blood pressure on kidney,which majority of people are not even aware of.any way come to your query usually kidney function tests are mirror image of the functions of kidney and when they are normal,we are almost sure about safe kidneys.still you can go for ultrasound for kidneys,for more information.but blood pressure definitely need to be controlled.
