Heidibug: Blood test shows kidney failure, BUN is less than 5

[Guest guest]

Heidibug,

I am an idiot, NO kidney failure, just me using the wrong ranges line

against the wrong result. I am so sorry to alarm you or anyone

else. Yes BUN is very low but the kidney test (egfr) is Normal!

Good lesson as Kathy and Barbara pointed out, not good to try to

interpret your own tests, let the doc do it! Meeting with primary on

friday.

My ANA came back positive at 1:160 guessing doc will order other

tests to explore this.

I am over the nausea and vomiting from yesterday, still took the

prednisone but had a much better day, actually did some work projects

too. Then I have to wonder about how psychie plays a role, dear

husband had left town on business when I started the nausea and

vomiting. I knew he returning today and felt so much better.

Hmmmm.......

Thanks for your thoughts and glad you finally had springlike

presidents day! It was windy and cold here all day, guess we had

your weather....
