(I have also posted this in the medication thread)

I recently heard back from my psychiatrist regarding my blood tests (please everyone get yours regularly) and I am presently taken a back, alarmed, and very anxious.

It seems I am being sent for tests regarding my thyroid.

It is the referral however to a kidney specialist that has me upset.

I have been reading of close calls with kidney related lithium toxicity. I had never heard of this. I knew about thyroid difficulty but not renal failure.

I'm a wee bit anxious here.
