normal range renal function test - #19507
I am super confused about my recent lab results. I went for a routine check-up and my doctor mentioned something about a normal range renal function test, but honestly, I don't fully understand what that means. I mean, I thought everything was fine until I got a call from them a few days later saying my creatinine level was higher than normal, which freaked me out, right? I've been feeling more tired lately and sometimes have these weird sharp pains in my sides, but I thought maybe that was just stress from work or my kids being loud all the time! Now I'm like, should I be worried? What does a normal range renal function test even look like? I've read a bit online and it sounds like kidney issues can be serious, but I'm hoping it's just a fluke. Also, how often do people get tested for this normal range renal function test? Is this something I should keep an eye on since I have a family history of kidney problems? Honestly, if anyone has gone through something similar or can help explain what this normal range renal function test means for someone like me, I would really appreciate it!
