My BUN level is 3.5 mg per dL. This is below the normal range as per my blood report. Is this a serious issue? Please advise what I need to do?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hello Doctor, I experienced severe dizziness, shortness of breath, and palpitations, so I consulted a doctor and underwent several tests. Could you please review my report and let me know if there is anything serious? I also have swelling in both ankles, but without any pain.
