View allI'm a bit concerned about some kidney issues I had after taking aceclofenac for a fever. My creatinine levels went up to 2.3, but they've come back down now. The thing is, whenever I don't drink enough water, I start to feel a slight pain again. Do you think this will go away with time, or should I see someone about it?
Yes it takes time to settle,get your renal function test done regularly, consume balanced diet and stay hydrated.

I'm 22 and was born with just one kidney. Lately, I've had high blood pressure and my serum creatinine has also gone up. It started at 1.9, then 2.24 after a few days, and on the day of my biopsy, it was 2.34. My eGFR is 40.8. After six days, my serum creatinine was 2.42 and potassium was 3.8. My doctor has put me on BP meds, defocord, and calcium tablets, and wants me to come back in a week. But Im worried. Is there hope for my serum creatinine to return to normal? Do you think Ill be okay again? How come I didnt notice any symptoms from the high BP and creatinine levels?
It's understandable to feel concerned, but with proper treatment, such as BP control, medications, and monitoring, it's possible to manage your condition and prevent further damage. The goal is to stabilize your kidney function and improve your overall health. Many people with high BP and creatinine don't experience noticeable symptoms, so it's important to keep regular check-ups to catch any changes early. Your doctor will guide you through the next steps for optimal care.

I'm trying to understand my recent kidney test results. My creatinine is at 0.8 mgdL and my urea level is 21 mgdL. Could you help me figure out what my BUN-to-creatinine ratio is and what it means for my health? I'm kind of worried about the effects it might have.
Your BUNCreatinine ratio can be calculated by dividing the BUN value by the creatinine value. In your case, the BUNCreatinine ratio is 210.8, which equals 26.25. A normal BUNCreatinine ratio is typically between 10:1 and 20:1. A ratio higher than this range may indicate dehydration, gastrointestinal bleeding, or a diet high in protein. A ratio lower than this range may indicate liver disease or malnutrition. In your case, with a BUNCreatinine ratio of 26.25, it is slightly higher than the normal range. This could be due to dehydration or a high-protein diet. It is important to stay hydrated and consider adjusting your diet if necessary.
