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

View allMy 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?

I have undergone some tests for my kidneys and am seeking expert opinion. The right kidney measures 8.5 x 5.1 cm, and the left kidney measures 12.6 x 6.8 cm. The lab report states a shrunken right kidney with a scarred surface and pelviectasis, suggestive of sequelae of a prior infection. The left kidney shows a small extra renal pelvis and increased post void residual urine volume of 85 cc?

My father is at CKD stage 5. His creatinine level is 8.5. There is no swelling or urination problem. His hemoglobin is 12. He has been diabetic for the past 26 years and is 50 years old. He also has high blood pressure. The doctor has told us that his kidney has failed due to diabetes. Is there any hope for him except dialysis or a kidney transplant?
