Re: Kidney issues -anyone else?

When I had my blood draw in August my kidney function was off also.

I always asked for my blood results to see what is going on. I got the results while I was in the infusion room and was concerned about them. The doctor did not even say anything to me about these previous blood work and my kidneys not functioning properly. The nurse who was doing my infusion was concerned, and she tried to get the doctor to call. He never called. I was very disappointed about this. I am going to ask him about these results next week when I go for my Herceptin infusion. He did do additional blood work to see how my organs were functioning. I know this because the woman taking my blood told me this.

I would like to know the results all of you receive. I have been trying to drink water throughout the day to see if this helps. I am going to try and drink more water while I am taking my infusion.

If any of you know any way to affect the number for the creatinine level please let me know. This has also been worrying me.
