Hi! I am a 29 year old female. A few weeks ago i went for a routine cbc and ekg which both came back slightly off Ekg reveals for the past few times a problem with my st-t depression(i had an episode a few years ago where large ammounts of cpk s wgere found in my blood) the docs did not have an answer. As for my recent blood tests Blood urea nitro 7l Mchc: 31 Lymphocytes; 55 Vldl and triglycerides verrry high My doc says i am ok and it could be lupus because i am a smoker?!??
