My serum creatinine level is 1.5 mg/dL. Does this indicate any abnormality? I consulted a urologist, but he did not mention anything about it.

A serum creatinine level of 1.5 is slightly high, which can happen due to dehydration, high protein intake, or muscle mass. If your urologist is not concerned, it likely means your kidney function is stable. Drink adequate water and avoid excessive protein supplements. If you have swelling, reduced urine, or weakness, follow up. You may get a Serum Urea, Electrolytes, and eGFR test to assess kidney function more precisely. conult nephrologist if needed
Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...
Take a Blood Urea Test Test or Take a Electrolytes Test Test

View allMy father is 60 years old and he was diagnosed with low grade non muscle invasive bladder cancer 2 years ago. He was treated with mitomycin 40 for 6 weeks and since then there has been no recurrence. Initially he had checkups every 3 months for 1 year, then every 6 months, and now he has been advised to come for follow up once a year. Each time the doctor asked us to bring a serum creatinine test report before cystoscopy. During his last checkup his creatinine was 1.31 mg per dl but there was no recurrence of the tumor. Since then I have put him on a low salt diet and ensured he stays hydrated. Today, we tested his blood again and the results are creatinine 1.16 mg per dl, serum urea 24 mg per dl, potassium 3.9 mEq per l, sodium 133, and hemoglobin 13.6. Should we be worried and what should be our next step?

His blood pressure suddenly rises to 250/140, and after hospitalization, his creatinine level is 4.97. Can this condition be treated or cured?
