Slightly lower kidney funcion

Posted , 3 users are following.

I have just had a UTI, treated with trimethaprim, and also a blood test. Blood test results tell me I have a slightly low kidney function. Has anyone else had this result. I have to do another urine sample. No explanation why from doctor at surgery!
