Your mother creatinine (6.7) and urea (144) levels suggest severe kidney dysfunction. If she refuses dialysis, manage with strict fluid restriction, low protein diet, and medicines under nephrologist care. Discuss options and risks openly with family.

I had gallbladder surgery in November. Before the surgery, my creatinine was 1.3. I repeated the KFT test in December, and I have attached the report here. Is my report normal? Should I be concerned, and after how many days should I repeat the test? I have also attached my urine routine report.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Please check this report and tell me that report is normal or any major problem? Creatinine range in my report is 1.6. Is it a major problem? Can you help me?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My current urea level is 47 and creatinine is 2.2. I have already undergone dialysis 6 times. What measures or treatments can help bring these levels back to normal?
