Why is there a rise in my creatinine level?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My creatinine level is 1.9. What should I do? My blood pressure (BP) is normal. I am currently on Zyloric 100 mg thrice daily, Atorvastatin 10 mg, and Eltroxin. I have done an ultrasound. I had a ultrasonography (USG) done with no abnormal findings.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com. This rise in creatinine levels is usually related to a kidney dysfunction. For this reason, I suggest performing further tests to investigate your kidney function like creatinine clearance, a urine analysis, urine microalbuminuria and consult with a nephrologist. It is also necessary performing a urinary tract ultrasound. Chronic hyperuricemia can lead to chronic damage to the kidneys. Anyway, I reviewed all your performed tests and would explain they are normal (normal blood lipid profile, complete blood count, thyroid function, fasting glucose, uric acid levels).
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
