Urea and electrolytes. This is a very standard test that will give an idea of your kidney function and the level of certain minerals in your blood.

FBCs, Us+Es, LFTs - they always say things like that on Casulty/Holby City when someone is admitted, I looked it up so I knew wot they were going on about.
