Low EGFR in Blood Work
My employer gives yearly blood tests and results. I'm a healthy 60 year old male and take no prescription medications. My recent blood test showed a lower EGFR level of 58. I've been noticing some bubbles in my urine for about 8-12 months now. I have no other symptoms. About 8 months ago, I started

And for me some good news!
So the NHS is open and I've had a Cystoscopy this afternoon painless although not pleasant and no infection or problem with the bladder but do still have blood in wee. I can't see it but he said its there, so now going for a non contrast CT scan as can't have contrast due to low kidney function. Best

How are you living life with spouses both Vaccinated against Covid but one has a kidney transplant and one is healthy?
I cannot find direct information on this question where I am healthy and vaccinated against Covid19 and my spouse is vaccinated and has a kidney transplant but cannot make antibodies due to being on Cellcept antirejection med mainly. Do I live my life "normal" and he is living restricted like before

I have kidney stones and recurrent UTI
I have had a series of UTI with several multidrug resistant bacteria. They also found some kidney stones which I am starting to pass. The stone that I saved was tested and found to be Calcium Oxalate. This is a very painful chapter in my 13 year journey with Prostate cancer.

Ompraloze and kidney and liver function test
Hi I have been asked by my hospital to get a blood test to test my liver and kidney function. The only reason I can think of is because I am taking ompraloze for acid reflux. I have been taking it for approxiametly 2 year. Now down to 20mg twice a day.

I'm new here....
Hello, I am new to HealthUnlocked but when I found out there was a forum available to speak with other people who have been given the diagnosis of Lupus I just had to join. I am still feeling numb from spending just over a week in hospital after being given the news about lupus, having a renal biopsy

Online support group with meetings for kids with kidney transplant?
Hi, My best friend's daughter had a kidney transplant about a year ago and sometimes she really struggles living with all the hard things that they still face. Does anyone attend (or be interested in creating) some kind of virtual meeting for parents with similar situations? She is a mom of two young

Long-term effects of ibrutinib on blood pressure in patients with CLL
It seems that the hypertension ( HTN) seen by patients being treated with Ibrutinib continues to rise year on year with treatment. At 5 years 74% of patients experienced an increase in Systolic Blood Pressure of ≥10 which is a huge number of patients. This hypertension is also often difficult to

Intrinsic factor antibody 1.01 u/mL 0 - 1.19 Normal I thought it would say negative or positive, so I’m confused. Thanks

Cancer 'power failure' stops the spread of tumor cells
Sirturo, targeted the fuel supply of cancer cells and blocked metastasis by nearly 85%. The drug had no effects on normal cells, thereby minimizing side-effects. It found that treatment with Sirturo caused a 'power failure," but only in cancer cells. Sirturo is already FDA-approved, with these findings
