    lifter girl, lets talk about some lab work

    sent myslef for some lab work, been feeling funky. last 4 weeks high protein no carb diet, i am used to eating like this, nothing new.

    lab values, elevated
    triglycerides-186
    chloride-110
    bun-36
    creanine1.7

    decreased total bilirubin 0.1

    taking no supplements havent taken anything in months, also i never drink alot of water on a daliy basis, more diet coke. my mom got a hold of the results, she is a nurse and is all concerned nd wants me to see a nephroloigist, i think this is drastic, what r ur thoughts?

    chloride and TG's are ok....upper level of most labs for Cl is around 108; and as long as Tg's are less than 200, i dont freak out about it.

    most normals are Cr <1.2; and BUN <30; i would bet that the high protein diet has something to do with it. i'm doing a bit of searching for info on it. Did they do a urine test; any protein in your urine? You said you were feeling funky....??? elaborate....

    UA was suposed to be done, i haven't been able to get away form work. my funky feeling has been just lethargic, and weaker while lifting,
