A creatinine of 1.6 is mildly elevated and may suggest early kidney function changes. Drink water, avoid painkillers, and repeat test or check eGFR/KFT.

Question

Recently, he had a problem where he was not able to urinate properly, but there was no pain. Creatinine level is 0.88 to 1.2, checked in different labs for repeatability. After consulting two different nephrology doctors, we are confused. One suggests normal kidney function, and the other suggests 20 percent kidney damage with a recommendation for Renosave medicine. We would like to know whether we need to take any medicine to prevent further kidney damage or if we should monitor eGFR to see any abnormality by creatinine level in blood tests? As per doctors suggestion, a DTPA test was conducted to examine kidney function. Following are the test report comments: There is abnormally increased circulating background tracer noted, suggestive of renal parenchymal dysfunction. Bilateral subnormally functioning kidneys without obstruction. Low normal limit of GFR for age greater than 70 ml/min. Kindly clarify and also suggest whether we need to take preventive medicine in this case or not to avoid any kidney damage?

Question

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.

Question

The patient has a history of diabetes and hypertension, and her recent tests show creatinine of 5 mg/dL and blood urea of 165 mg/dL, suggesting possible end stage renal disease. While we plan to consult a nephrologist, could you please advise on dietary interventions that may help manage her blood profile and support kidney function?
