Ok , my entire post is being moderated for whatever reason. Probably won't hear anything about it , usually don't. So , here goes again , only much shorter..
Got my yearly bloodwork report today. Been taking thyroid meds for 10 years and everything has been fine , UNTIL TODAY !! My doctor said everything looked fine , but I don't think he looked closelt enough. My TSH is 6.18, BUN 25 , and GFR IS 70. T 3 and 4 were not taken. So here it is , the weekend , and I'll be worried all weekend about having kidney desease. I've read that PPIs and antacids inteferes with absorption of harmones. I had H-Pylori earlier this year that left me with gastritis and ulcers. I stopped the prescription PPIs a few months ago. But had a terrible flareup of gastritis so I started OTC ppi about a week ago. Also have been takin med for insomnia that is solely excreted by the kidneys. So last night I've stopped both those meds. Would prefer not getting kidney desease. Has anyone had any experience with high BUN and high TSH ? Wondering if my dose of thyroid med was increased , would it decrease the BUN. Any response would be greatly appreciated. Didn't use the name of any of the meds , just in case thats why the forst one wasn't posted. Who knows !!!

Had no idea. Thanks. Gonna bring that up to my gp. My thyroid numbers started changing when I was diagnosed with H-Pylori. That was 12 months ago maybe a little longer. This was the first blood work I've had since the. Kidney failure scares the ..... out of me though.
