I compared the blood test results I got from my nephrologist yesterday to the ones from my GP in early March. They were almost the same. My cholesterol was just a teeny bit higher (still kind of high), and so were my triglycerides (but still normal range). Everything else was in normal range except my creatinine level, shows kidney functioning, but that was improved. Every time I see these docs they talk about prescribing a statin for my cholesterol, but continue to hold off. I just have to try harder to lower it with diet and exercise. My blood pressure was slightly high 2 of 3 times yesterday, but I think that was White Coat Syndrome.
The good thing is that since my psychiatrist lowered my Seroquel XR a bit last week, I haven't had bad carb/sugar cravings. Actually, I've been having vegetable cravings. Good!
