Trust me..in your 40's a cup of tea before bed time or road trip eg from JHB to PTA can easily convert to 5L:)

OK, so got my test results back from the Doc.

Apparently everything is fine, she gave me Anti-Biotics on friday to treat the blood in my urine, which may have been an Infection. So the urinating at night is much better already, but now a few other concerns:

I tested my Cholesterol 3 months ago and it was sky high,6.2. I started on a nice clean dieet in 2009, eating only fish & chicken with veggies at night, and the test results still shows that my Cholesterol is 5.6... Dammit... so now I'm going on chronic meds... and this at only 24...damm...

And my liver seems to be damaged, ALT=183(Norm:10-40), AST=61 (Norm 13-35)... So ja... what a freaking whatup call... Going to try and treat my liver with some milk Thistle for a month and if it's still that high we need to look into other causes...

Should I even bother going to a normal doctor or should I go to a urologist instead? With the amount of creatine I've consumed in my life, it's not impossible that I might get kidney stones...

Will the urologist be able to find the problem rather than the GP? I know his more specialized so I guess he/she would? Would he also be able to check my blood for diabetes?

a normal dr has to refer you to a urologist.

Does your pee burn by any chance? if it does it might mean you have a bladder infection. then you'd have to go and get some antibiotics from the dr toe clear the infection up.

Sheesh dudette. You don't sound like you in good shape. Get your cholesterol lower before you drop.

Take omega31/salmon tablets - they help a lot!
