If you have HCV I think it's appropriate to check your renal function. Perhaps your blood creatinine and/or urea nitrogen (BUN) were out of range. I hope all of your results are good.

The 24 hour urine test is to get an idea of your kidney function.

The urine, no.  Blood test is for PT-PTT, your ability to clot.  If you are way,way slow on clotting they will choose a method besides needle biopsy or delay it.
