Hello,
In August, 18th 2007 I went to urgent care because I was feeling quite sick. They ran blood tests, which came back normal, except for 3 things:
Creatinine was high at 1.6 and RDW was also high at 15.5. Glucose was also high.
The lab where I usually have these blood work done has 1.3 for upper *normal* level for creatinine. I followed up with my PCD and had the blood test again in August 22nd, 2007, which showed creatinine level back to 1.3.
Name Normal Range 12/13/06 3/31/07 8/18/07 8/22/07
GLUCOSE (mg/dL) 70-99 mg/dL 99 95 114 H 104 H
UREA NITROGEN (mg/dL) 7-18.0 mg/dL 15 14 14 11
CREATININE (mg/dL) 0.8-1.3 mg/dL 1.2 1.3 1.6 H 1.3
In both occasions I wasn't fasting.
Next week I am going for my physical and will have all these tests done again. I am quite nervous of finding out that I indeed have a major kidney desease like cancer. I've been also monitoring my blood pressure, which also seems to fluctuate a considerably.
I would appreciate any thoughts.
Thank you very much.
