Jillydoll thanks babe xx
Thank you, Lisa. It's unlikely that these meds are messing up with your creatinine clearance test, unless you are taking a high dose.
Before my kidney scan I had an altered test but 2 months later, it came normal. The Nephrologist thinks it was due to dehydration. I think the hot flushes and sweats may have contributed. Do you remember taking a good amount of water before the tests?
Are you taking propranolol for high bp or anxiety? What's the dosage? Altered kidney function could happen on high doses.
Simvastatin actually can help kidney function. Is it keeping your cholesterol levels under control?
Venlafaxine could be causing this but it's a very rare side effect.
Why the vitamin D spray is odd? How much is it supposed to deliver in IU? As I mentioned before, vitamin D is a hormone and could contribute to high levels of calcium in blood which can overload the kidneys and arteries. If you take a vitamin D supplement you should also take vitamin K2 and magnesium (my mistake was not taking them).
Do you have any other blood tests results?
