OT: Kidney function & Essiac tea

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I just had a comp. metabolic blood panel done & the BUN/Creatinine Ratio is

elevated (32) with a range of 11-26. It's always been in the range before, but

now that I am concerned about my kidneys/liver etc. it just happens to be

elevated. The doctor wrote on the test " Labs are normal " but I don't know

whether to be concerned or not. In addition, I have been drinking Essiac tea

for about 2-3 months & would have thought it would make a kidney blood test

result better, not worse. I'm confused & afraid that there's something wrong

with my kidneys now. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this & what

further action, if any, should I take? Thanks.
