Is nic showing on a bloodtest
Female | 17
When getting a blood test, it may show if someone has too much 'NIC' in their system. This happens when people eat too many things with salt or if their kidneys are not working well. If you feel thirsty and tired all the time, or if your feet and legs swell up - those could be signs that something is wrong because of too much 'NIC'.

I am 31 female right kidney not functioning
Female | 31
The right kidney of your body that is not properly functioning will show you the symptoms of back pain, and pain in your side, and you may feel sick and have trouble peeing. This happens because of infections, or diseases that cause the kidneys to swell and stone obstruction. Surgery is sometimes required. Medical remedies are required. Consult a nephrologist for further opinion.

I am a 64 year old female who was diagnosed with IGA nephropathy in 1992. I am now Stage 4. My creatinine hovers around 2.38 and my GFR is 23. I do not have protein spillage or blood in my urine. I have lost 124 lbs over the last 12 months with the assistance of Zepbound? Please help me understand what is causing my Creatinine to continue to rise? Could the Zepbound be causing this? I eat 1200 calories a day and stay within my sodium and potassium goals. I run 3 miles a day. But my kidneys are continuing to worsen. Please help me understand what else I can do. What is causing my creatinine to continue to rise? Should I get another kidney biopsy since my last biopsy was 32 years ago? Thank you so much for your help.
Female | 64
Considering your circumstance with IGA nephropathy, it is usual that creatinine levels may increase as kidney functions get worse. Also, rapid weight loss may affect kidney function. It is good that you are committed to eating right and exercising, but running 3 miles every day could strain your kidneys more. You should talk about these worries with a nephrologist. A further kidney biopsy might be able to tell what is happening to your kidneys now.

Sometimes when I’m in a certain position and I cough or laugh hard my kidney will have a quick sharp pain. It has happened twice today and I noticed it about a month ago I would say but it’s not often. Should I be concerned about this? It is giving me anxiety.
Female | 18
You may have "referred pain" from kidneys. Sometimes, coughing or laughing hard moves kidneys slightly, causing sharp pain. This could be a kidney stone or muscle strain near the kidney. To ease anxiety, drink water and avoid motions triggering pain. If pain continues or worsens, contact a nephrologist for evaluation.

you need to visit emergency department if your bp is more than 180/100 and having symptoms like headache for properly evaluation and management of your condition. This could be hypertensive emergency and needs immediate ecg and bp lowering medication to avoid possible complications.
