I've noticed my creatinine level went up to 1.46 again, and my protein creatinine ratio is at 0.95. I'm taking Cap Neoral 100100, Azoran 75mg, Wysolone 5mg, Telma 40mg, Prolomet XL 25mg daily, and Inderal 20mg twice. Last month, I had a similar issue with my S.creatinine and creatinine protein ratio, and my doctor increased my dose of Wysolone to 30mg, which brought my creatinine down to 1.2. But now it's back up to 1.46 again. The doctor is suggesting I should go for a biopsy, and I'm kind of stressed about it. Do you think I should proceed with it? I'd really appreciate your advice.

View allI'm looking for some advice regarding my mom's health. About a year and a half ago, she had a heart attack and went through angiography and angioplasty, where they found a blockage and put in a stent. Since then, we've been going for regular checkups, and her health reports have been mostly fine. But recently, her blood report showed her creatinine levels were at 2.47, which the doctor said might be due to heavy medication. They suggested that stopping the medication could reverse this and help her kidneys recover. After consulting a nephrologist, she started on a new treatment and diet plan, and her creatinine levels went down to 1.79 and then to 1.59. Even though her creatinine is decreasing, I'm worried because she's still experiencing swelling. Could there be another issue that's causing this? What should we be looking into or asking at her next appointment?
While her creatinine levels are improving, swelling could still be due to kidney or heart-related issues, medications, or dietary factors. It's essential to continue working closely with her healthcare providers, and follow the prescribed treatments and diet plan. Regular check-ups, blood tests, and open communication with her doctor will help guide the best course of action.

I'm a bit worried about my diabetes and recent test results. My urinary microalbumin creatinine ratio test shows a microalbumin concentration of 76.43, urinary creatinine concentration of 19.31, and a microalbumin creatinine ratio of 395.80. I've been taking mucinac 600 tablets, but I haven't seen any improvement. How can I lower these levels?
Your microalbumin-to-creatinine ratio (395.80) indicates early signs of diabetic nephropathy; to reduce microalbuminuria, focus on tight blood sugar control, aiming for an HbA1c < 7%; also, consider the following: maintain optimal blood pressure control (
