New blood work. Egfr is better at 73, was down to 47, creatinine is normal, no more protein in my urine, but urea is still high. 8.1. Normal is 2.2-7.0 mmol/L Iron is low, 10. Normal is 11-34 umol/L Microscopic blood in urine. 0.3 mg/L. Normal is negative and leukocytes are high 500 wbc/ul, Canadian measurements Uti, I'm guessing but i have no symptoms, burning, frequent urinating? None. Transferrin saturation is just barely normal at 0.13. Normal is 0.13-0.50 Ferritin is low end of normal at 20. Normal is 5-272. I'm thinking maybe anemia. Always cold, extreme fatigue. Could this still be ckd related. Don't see the nephrologist until mid December? Any thoughts? Thanks
Hi!
Until the GFR goes up to normal the urea will be elevated.It is a good sign that there is no albumin in the urine.I think that the anemia is normal for your condition.The increased WBC can be due to other infection.Drink more tea and be careful in the flu season.
Best of luck
