[New post] Grandmother had Polycystic kidney disease. Years ago I’ve had blood in my urine. My lab test: Est GFR value 59 glomerular filtration rate. BUN value 24mg/dL. Uric acid 6.6 mg/dl. Mucous Treads Present. Urine Alb/CRE ratio <6.9 normal <30. Muscle weakness, cramping, and fatigue. I take medications unrelated. Unsure what's next? How concerned should I be, dietary changes, quality life impact? Meds I take: Propranolol, Testosterone Cypionate, Adderall, ADHD/hypersomnia, and Effexor.
