My GP went over my latest blood results yesterday with me and he has referred he to a renal specialist and arranged a scan - he said to check for masses / cysts narrowing etc as my kidney function has gone down a fair bit quite quickly but my other results look ok (they didn’t for a while) he’s also wanting a sample of urine sent off for testing.

he said he wants to rule things out because if it can’t be “fixed” then that’s not good for me. So to me that sounded like he was hoping he would find something in or around my kidney that could be treated to give me more function back or I could end up on dialysis sooner than later. 

im just wondering if he’s ruling out cancer but just didn’t say as much…. Is anyone in the same boat? I hadn’t really processed it so I didn’t ask him any questions I just thanked him and went on my way
