Oh Wendy I'm glad the dr. Called. There is nothing like being in that limbo state. Yes it would be scary to hear dialysis.
And thanks for calling me a Pal, I needed that today.I used to get bladder infections a lot, not so anymore though I had surgery for them.
Cranberry juice is good more for preventing U.T.I's than treating them.
For possibly weakened kidneys, these are some of the best, and you can usually buy them together in a "Kidney cleanse" at any health food store.
Pau D'arco Cornsilk, Redclover
are particularly good,
If everything checks out fine, it is still good to take these because our meds are pretty hard on the kidneys and liver and relationships (oh but I digress)I think it was Either Effexor or Chlorpromazine that caused the increase in white blood cells,
most likely chlorpromazine.
Protein in the urine could be from anything I think, it could be that there was just a little blood. (Im not positive though)If you don't have a lot of swelling in your body
I don't think its a crisis.
It sounds to me like they are just being thorough.
Thats what it was with me, though I went through
two weeks of agony.
What a blathery letter with no help. I will try and find some concrete stuff about exactly what I had, but I move so damn much I never know where anything is. :(
