Kidney function

Hey.

its been a few years since I’ve been on here. Lots has been going on.

so I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2018, my hba1c has been up and down like a yo-yo. Well I was lucky enough to be given MJ through my gp.
mu kidney function has always been ok. Just had a blood test to check my levels. Hba1c is down from 68 to 49 which is amazing.
but my kidney function has come back as 82 from the normal average for me 90.
also my white blood cells have come back elevated. Only very slightly.

has anyone had any experience or been through similar who can put my mind at rest?

82 can be from something simple like dehydration

Ask the GP to redo the test in afew weeks
