Sorry idk what happened yo the rest of my post.....
The norm is less than 17, mine is 53. that usually means kidney damage caused by diabetes or high blood pressure or cirrhosis. I have never had any of those diseases!
I am at a loss because all my levels were normal in december and now they are very high. I am scared because these are my kidneys not something you can just write off. tomorrow I have an appointment for another urine collection, kidney blood panel and a utrasound of my kidneys. tomorrow I also have an appointment with my new obgyn to discuss trying to conceive and having a possible vbac, along with my annual exam. but if I have kidney issues we cannot try to conceive obviously, and that makes me so sad. I know health is number 1 and I know I'm still young did this just sucks. I'm so scared sad nervous anxious, these results cant come in fast enough. please pray that everything turns out fine, I will keep you all updated.

Congrats on the awesome weightloss! That is very scary info about your kidneys :( I will keep my fingers crossed that it was a lab error or something like that! And if not, hopefully there is a simple fix?
You are very smart to deal with that before you TTC.
Good luck to you!

Thanks! I got all my labs (urine and blood) drawn , as well as my sono. Hoping all turns out well, should know by mid next week. I talked with my new ob today, he was amazing and stated that I would have a 75% of a vbac if I didnt have any complications. I told him about the possible kidney issue and he said we are good to ttc once im given the all clear of my results. so either way im out this month. God willing, all is ok and we will be full on trying in July =)
