Kidney failure after C-section

I had acute renal failure after my C-section six months ago. I have been having extreme lower back pain that is preventing me from sleeping, and my blood pressure has been down ranging from 108/60 to about 125/75. The doctors have said that my kidney function was back to normal in October - is there a chance I may be having problems again?
