I just went through some medical tests I had done in the spring, plus I have finally got to see my CT results from Cleveland Clinic. The CT scan shows a small granuloma in my left lobe. Will have to see what my doctors say at my upcoming appointments.
The other test was from Lifeline Screening....something my hubby insists on paying for us to do every few years. It seems repetitive of tests I have at other times that insurance covers, but it makes him happy to do the tests, so I go along with it. Anyway, I was so sick when the last results came, that I did not read it thoroughly. I looked it over the other day and it seems that I have a few readings involving the kidneys that indicate a problem. The "whole blood creatinine creatine" is 1.17 which they say is considered abnormal and higher than normal. That does not make sense to me since they also say the range for women is 1.11-3.49. So I am not sure that is an accurate report. They also report an eGFR of 46, which according to them is low and "indicates possible Chronic Kidney Disease at stage 3 or worse."
I have no kidney problem symptoms. Everything is respiratory. Am not going to get too worried about it till I see my doctors again. When I went for the screening I was not feeling well at all, and might have been on prednisone. Who knows how that might have affected the test.
But...it makes me wonder.....
