Have A Problem With The Kidney, The Bun/creat Level Are Hign As Per The Test. What To Do For This?
My kidney bun/creat levels are high and I don't know what to do for it. I told my doctor about my eating disorder and he told me that it doesn't affect the kidneys. Why are labs taken at a different place will say the levels are within norma?
I don't have funds for this right now but I really need too know what I can do

Hello.
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
You are having kidney trouble but what type , you didn't mention.
You mentioned that blood urea nitrogen level is high with serum creatinine level .
You didn't mention that exact figure so very difficult to say some thing.
Why labs are claiming that levels are normal ? We can't say about that ,until receive complete report, so please upload all reports.
Diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound of both kidneys as well M R I of urinary tract system.
The next step is to get in urine culture and drug sensitivity test for evaluation of any diagnosis .
In my opinion consult a nephrologist and get his opinion regarding kidneys condition at earliest .
Good luck.
Dr. HET
