Bad news from y doctor???
Today, I received news from my rheumatologist, and I don’t know howto feel about it. Last month, I had a more tests focused on mykidneys. Though, my uric acid level tends to be low and the medicineseems to be working, the doctor noticed that my levels of creatininewere consistently elevated.
One of these test consisted in an ultrasound that found no problemswith my kidneys. The other test was a urine test and it showedevidence of protein and blood in it. He also told me that he cannotdo anything more, and that I should be referred to a nephrologist(kidney specialist).
I hope that I have nothing to worry about, and that this is only tomake sure that nothing really bad is going to come and bite when Iam older. If you have had any similar experiences, please drop me anote.
My background: I am 30 years old, I had my first attack when I was27, and the attacks generally come when I loose wait suddenly (don’tworry, I always loose wait through exercise and proper diet, no faddiets for me, always with the help of professionals).
