OK so this happened a while ago but it has been eating at me lately. Has any of your urologists ever tried to do a pelvic exam because because your creantin level is off? My former uro did and I switched after that becuase - creepy - he almost seemed to enjoy it a little too much.

I have thought about filing a complaint. I had already filed a complaint against him because at the time I saw him they discovered a large abdominal mass on my CT scans and he never felt it was important to even TELL ME about it. It has since been removed and was fortunately benine.

Thank goodness that it was benign. What a relief. Have you been referred to a neph? If your creatinine is high, you need to be followed.

Good luck to you.

Yes neph referred me to the urologist. Creantin has been monitored and has been normal for 2 years now.

The tumor, though benign, was a lymphoma so was actually throwing offer my serum levels - that an undiagnosed case of gout - once protein and diet was changed creantin returned to normal. Been monitored monthly ever since by new uro.
