Hello everyone,
I just got some blood test results back and my eGFR is 84. I was on macrobid for a UTI at the time of collection (started on macrobid Saturday, had 4 doses by the time of collection on Monday morning, blood work as fasting so last dose taken before blood collection was over 12 hours previously). Does anyone know if macrobid affects eGFR or is this level an induction of possible kidney infection/disease/cancer? I have been experiencing dizziness and nausea which one doctor said was labyrhinthitis (I did have a confirmed bacterial ear infection) but an ENT disagreed and said I still had to compensate from the bacterial infection (5 months ago). Just want to make sure there's nothing else I'm missing. CBC, glucose, ferritin, creatinine, ALT, CK, vitamin B12, TSH all normal, total cholesterol high (6.01), TC/HDL-C low (3.36), LDL cholesterol high (3.80). Urinalysis chemical tests normal, culture still pending.
Thank you for your help!
