Answered by Apollo Doctors

My father is a cardiac patient (normotensive and non diabetic) and underwent CABG 3 years ago. He is currently on antianginal medications: Diltiazem 90 mg, Ranolazine 500 mg, Flavedon MR, and Monotarate 20. Today, his blood report shows: Serum creatinine: 1.28 mg/dl Serum uric acid: 7.5 mg/dl Urine RM: Proteinuria 10 mg/dl Does this indicate a kidney problem, or is it nothing to worry about?

I have been experiencing lower back pain since Monday which has become progressively worse. I have also been drinking excessive amounts of water about one pint every one and a half hours or less. I have a lack of appetite and feel full most of the time. I visited my GP and they checked my urine and blood pressure which were normal. I am going for blood tests on Monday and will wait for the results. Do you know what could be causing these symptoms? Thank you Jack.
