Two Year Donation Results

[Poppylicious]

So, I finally have the results from my two year (and three month; she's not on the ball, my LDC) post-donation tests. I've also included the one year results in purple.

BP 131/78 (120/76)
Hb 117g/dl (I'm assuming that's 11.7g/dl otherwise it's very much increased since last year!) (12.1g/dl)
WBC 8.6 (7.0)
Plt 293 (209)
Na 138mmol/l 140mmol/l
K 4.4mmol/l (4.7mmol/l)
ALT 20u/l (I don't think I was tested for this last year)
Urea 7.4mmol/l (5.3mmol/l)
Creatinine 60μmol/l (0.68 in AmeriSpeak) (76umol/l)
GFR >60 (79)
No blood or protein in urine dipstick and all other urine tests normal

The recommendations at the bottom (this is the letter which is sent to my GP) states that my blood pressure only just falls into the category for LKDs. *sigh* ... my blood pressure has always been so perfect.  My Full Blood Count bloods Red Blood Count is 3.78 so falls just below the normal range, as does my Haematocrit which is 0.345.  They'd like these repeated the next time I'm visitng my GP. *another sigh*

Other than that I think I'm in fairly good health.

Sounds good.  UK numbers are different than US but looks good.

Hey Poppy --- did you make that call you mentioned in the other thread ??  If not and you're seeing your GP again ..........just sayin' !!!

Yeah, what he said! A lot of people would pay good money for numbers like that.

Those results look really good to me!  You have had a lot going on lately, so I wouldn't worry too much about the BP.  I am sure you have a cuff at home. I would re-check it a few times.  I bet your results are closer to your perfect normal.  Hope things continue to go well for you!

Thanks, guys.  I hope you don't think I'm bragging ... I have very little idea what the numbers mean; I just know that they must be okay or the recommendations would be 'come to Hospital right now!'.  It helps to put them on here, both for potential/other LDs to know and because I know you lot will tell me if I have anything to worry about (what with being so much more knowledgeable than me!)

Hey Poppy --- did you make that call you mentioned in the other thread ??  If not and you're seeing your GP again ..........just sayin' !!! 

I did - I'm going tomorrow morning and I'll make sure I have my results on me so I can shove it under his face and say, 'test me!' (although I'm hoping it will flag up on his screen when I go in, because I'll probably forget to mention it.)
