Had a bunch of blood work done last week all normal of course, except my BUN level was 5. Does anyone know anything about this? PCP says no biggie, just slight malnutrition.
Gee could it be because I can't keep anything in!!!!

I had a high BUN, too. My PCP said not to worry though my LLND was a bit concerned. Said it might indicate some muscle wasting. It did drop as I "recovered". I think all the #s have to be interpreted as a whole, though.
Good luck with that nutrition issue. I know some here may have suggestions.
