Three weeks ago blood tests showed the cretinine in my kidneys had gone from a stable reading of 80 up to 190. Went to hospital daily for steroid infusions then put on 23 various tablets in the mornings, including 12 steroids. Now down to 4 steroids daily. Last bloods showed down to 140 range but otherwise no improvement. CT and MRI scans all good and kidney ultra sound showed healthy kidneys.  Wondering if this has happened to any one else? They were hoping to start treatment again week after next but I'm not so sure now.

  • Hi  

    I haven't had this but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.

    I hope your treatment goes ahead. How are you feeling about this 'blip'?
