High BUN Levels

[Neewbiest guy]

Hey fellas, just wondering how concerned I should be with high BUN levels? Its only 3 point high out of the normal range, but I am on a high protein diet at the moment. My A/G Levels are slightly elevated as well but nothing major. Just wanted some of your guys experience with BUN Levels and if its even anything to be concerned about?

Nothing to worry about at all. It's caused by your diet, most probably and not necessarily a negative - it's just that you are out of the range for normal specimens (who are usually not on a high protein diet).
