Blood test results panic

Hi Everyone,
I've long suffered with health anxiety ever since my daughter lost the use of her kidneys at the age of 9. I donated one of my kidneys so only have one, which means I have to have regular kidney check-ups. This time the test has had to be repeated because apparently the blood sample had deteriorated in transit and I'm panicking about the result, because I thought I saw the 'result' of the first test. I'm sitting her literally shaking with fear based on something I think I saw. I won't get the results until next Monday at the earliest and have no idea how I'm going to get through the weekend (I live alone). Can somebody help?

What are you worried about?

I'm worried that my kidney might be failing

They would have told you if it was

I assume they did a Renal function blood test incl GFR. Look don’t panic, it could be something like you’re serum potassium is a bit low or high ( hyperkalemia and hypokalemia). This can usually be treated easily. If they found something serious on you’re results they would have told you by now
