Wide screen: Can't "americanize" fbe, but urine & serum creatine (measure of kidney function); serum b-hcg (pregnancy test); lft (liver function tests); TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone); calcium/phosphate levels; ESR (sed rate) & CRP (c-reactive protein) [esr&crp look for inflammation in the body]; fe=iron level. No worries!
