Are Tremors And Confusion Normal When Having Kidney Problems?
Hello Dr. I went to the ER for some strange symptoms like tremors and confusion, they did a chest Xray and found increased markings at the right base and mentioned a questionable early infiltrate. My CPK level was 293 and the kidneys were slight affected from the CPK levels constricting the kidneys. Other than that all tests were fine including a CT scan of head and EKG. I had a follow up chest x-ray today. Also a breast cancer survivor. I am 52 years young. Former light smoker quit in 1999. If the spot is still there, what is usually the next step? Thank you
