Just because a lab result says "abnormal" doesn't mean it's anything. Many of those are set ranges the lab should fall in. Depending on what else is going on...the labs could very well be expected to fall into what the lab machines label "abnormal"

It's so cute how you are just a condescending know it all when it come to me. I have never been rude to you.

I pray you will have a baby soon so you can find something else to focus on than my life.

It's cute that other male posters have also made fun of all the crazy drama that you post about....yet you never seem to give them grief.

Thanks, but trust me...I don't focus on your life. I know I post a shite ton about my life. And I get flack on here because of it, but don't care. But you take the cake with the crazy stories you post.

i had been in severe pain for about 2 week but had figured it would go away but it didn't. By last night i could not take it anymore.

It was as bad as the giant kidney stone i once had. So it could have been a kidney stone as i am urinating blood and the pain would not stop and i could not walk upright anymore.

Lest anyone think this was a drug seeking mission, dont bother. The only drug i requested was toradol and phenergan.

I told them to skip the narcotics and just get to testing to find the cause. they still offered me Norco and i refused as I hate that shite.

Pain meds suck. I wish they could just use lidocane injections on the painful parts, that would be dream come true. (lidoderm patches dont work well at all. If they did they would be a miracle)

What causes this


Most common cause is spreading Katrina-related lies, false claims, tall tales, on the internet.

There report also said i had diverticulitis which again they did not mention to me.

I'm just mystified that they found so much abnoral and failed to inform me of it.


They didn't want to tell you they're going to have to put you in front of an Obamacare death panel.

Thanks, always glad to amuse with the tales of my glorious funny life. Luckily i have a sense of humor and turn all that crazy stuff into a story that always makes everyone laugh.

I actually write for a living and the crazy stories are always the ones that get the most praise, shares and the pay is good for just sitting on my butt at home and playing around on the internet.

Just my way of taking my stories of my life and making a profit on it while making others laugh at the absurdities i always seem to meet up with

Did the results list an eGFR level? (Estimated granular filtration rate).

That’s a combined number that predicts kidney function based on protein and creatinine in the blood.

yes, I always have them but it is up in the kidney and is lodged there not moving but growing slightly.

They could do a PNL cut thru my back to get it out as they have done before but i pretty much refuse to ever go thru that again.

The weight loss is very serious. You need to see your pcp asap.

Also, did the ER do a HgbA1c (test for diabetes)?

That is for you to followup with your PCP.

The ER is there to stabilize you from your immediate symptoms, and then you follow up with any test results with your PCP.

it sounds more so like you don't fully understand the process here.

You probably had some moles the Dr didn't mention either. They're "abnormal" too but just as relevant as all the shite you've listed. If you wanted to interpret your own results you should've just ordered them on the internet.

yep i surely don't understand why they diagnosed diverticulosis, and L5 degenerative issues, and some sort of hepatic lesion and such and didnt bother to mention any of this to me.

I have a cyst on one of my kidneys. The Dr said it was nothing. It showed up when they were looking for cause of blood.
