Answered by Apollo Doctors

Can the doctor tell if one kidney shut down via a blood test?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am Sudipta Paul. For the last 4 days, I have been facing swelling in my feet and ankles, and my food habits have also changed. I have tested my creatinine level, and it is high at 5.95. Urine is not coming properly, and stool is also irregular. I am now confused and tense about what to do? I am also a heart patient and diabetic. Please give me a solution? I am sharing my report.
