Just had the results of my blood tests back. Bone profile abnormal, urea and electrolytes abnormal and lipids abnormal.
Feeling pretty scared right now.

No. I have an appt., at 5.20pm. I guess I will know more then. But I should have insisted on having a bone profile a lot sooner instead of blaming everything on just hormones.

Hi all.....
My cholesterol is still elevated but it has come down... I've been following a healthy diet so its working at least. But that was still flagged... My GFR is on the low side so my kidneys aren't working as well as they might. It was flagged as moderate renal impairement.......The doctor told me they did a test for this two years ago and the results were worse in 2012 and slightly better now. I have no idea why they didn't tell me this back then.... I'm pretty frustrated. My GP (who is wonderful by the way), is going to repeat the test in two weeks time...... This coming week I'm going to asked for a referral to a rheumatologist for the pain .. I don't have Rheumatoid Arthritis which is what I was afraid of so that's positive.... still in pain though.... it's the renal stuff that's puzzling me
Thanks for being her ladies.... me and an awful lot to me x

I agree with Prajna. A reaction to another drug you take was the first thing that crossed my mind. I really hope you get some answers soon. The wait is horrible! X
