I just let out the biggest sigh of releif! (Did you hear it from Texas?)
Thanks so much! I was worried, I got my parents worried, I haven't been able to think of anything else all day! Some of the websites said if you're getting close to 300 you're on a fast track to kidney failure which will probably occur within 5 years
Sometimes the internet is a bad thing.
Before, I had been getting tests 3 or 4 times per year and seeing the kidney specialist every 2 years. I think I only went back to him once though and things were better so I haven't seen him again. I guess if things get bad, I will get another referral.
My next test does not have creatinine marked off, but it has
Calcium
Vitamin D
Microalbumin
Hs-CRP/
GFR
I had the last test taken on Jan 3rd so I'm trying to take myself back and think of what I might have had or done... I had some drinks at Christmas with my family and I drank some wine in the hot tub on New Years, and I know alcohol isn't the best for kidneys so that might have affected it. I don't drink much these days at all. I wasn't eating really healthy that week either. I am sure I also had a bit of a cold then too.
I guess I'll just try to change my diet a bit and get some more exercise and take my vitamins and hope for the best!
