I've got a creatinine level of 1.2 and my serum urea is 22. I'm really wondering if those numbers mean my kidneys are in good shape or if there's something to worry about. Any advice on how I might be able to bring down the creatinine level?

I've just turned 27 and was diagnosed with high blood pressure about a year ago. I'm currently taking Telma and Prazopress. I recently read online that having high BP might increase the chances of developing kidney issues later on. Can you guide me on how I might prevent this from happening?

Your father's blood pressure reading of 17080 is not normal, especially considering his history of diabetes. Normally, people with diabetes should have a blood pressure of no more than 13080 . The sudden spike in blood pressure could be a cause for concern. I recommend that you consult with your father's doctor immediately to determine the cause of this sudden increase. In the meantime, here are some general tips that may help your father manage his blood pressure: - *Monitor blood pressure regularly*: Keep track of your father's blood pressure readings to identify any patterns or changes. - *Follow a healthy diet*: Encourage your father to eat a balanced diet that is low in salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats. - *Stay hydrated*: Make sure your father drinks plenty of water throughout the day. - *Manage stress*: Stress can exacerbate high blood pressure. Encourage your father to engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.

I've recently gotten my serum creatinine level checked, and it's at 1.13. Is this something to be worried about, or is it normal? I got these results last week, and I'm feeling a bit anxious. Could you please help me understand if there's anything I should be concerned about?

Your serum creatinine level of 1.13 mgdL is within the normal range for adults. The normal range for serum creatinine is approximately 0.6 to 1.3 mgdL for males and 0.5 to 1.1 mgdL for females. It is an important indicator of kidney function. To maintain healthy kidney function, it is important to stay hydrated, eat a balanced diet, and avoid excessive intake of medications that can harm the kidneys. If you have any concerns about your kidney health, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

What causes high creatinine?

High creatinine level means your kidneys aren't working well. Creatinine level may temporarily increase if you're dehydrated, have low blood volume, eat a large amount of meat or certain medications.
