Jodie,
I assume you looked up nephrotoxicity on the internet and found some scary info.?
The internet is a wonderful tool but shouldn't be used to diagnose yourself without medical help. Also, many web sites are not reliable. Try looking it up on one of the more accurate medical sites listed in the first forum. Remember, this isn't a medical site, and we aren't here to do medical research for you.
Or, better yet, call your doctor and ask him/her. If you are concerned that Vanco. has affected your kidneys, usually this applies to the IV form of Vanco. - not the oral.
