I recently had a few blood test at Healthy Heart Clinic which came up with the following:

Urea and electrolytes

Serum sodium level 140 mmol/L [133.0 - 146.0]

Serum potassium level 4.4 mmol/L [3.5 - 5.3]

Serum creatinine level 105 umol/L [59.0 - 104.0]; Above high reference limit

Serum urea level 4.9 mmol/L [2.5 - 7.8]

eGFR using creatinine (CKD-EPI) per 1.73 square metres 57 mL/min [60.0 - 150.0]; Below low reference limit

I am told that I will need to go back for another test next week, but not told why!

    Thank you for your reply.

    Have just been told by GP that they have made a mistake and that a repeat blood test in a week is too early therefore I have a repeat in a month.
