High creatinine level 6 months out

Had all my 6 months labs done even had a cholesterol check which was 114 but concerned my creatinine was way higher than normal she said normal was 17-24 mine was 27 and that's really high.

I don't know much about creatine !
A long time ago, when I was thin and working out a lot..... I had dizzy spells and went to the ER and when they ran my blood work I had abnormally high creatine - they admitted me for a few days to give me fluids/ meds
I never really knew why it happened
Wish you luck!!!

Creatine shows abnormal kidney function. I can't tell you how it works in humans, but in cats, yes. It's a symptom of kidney failure in them. You may not be drinking enough water/noncaffinated drinks depending on your other meds. I need a minimum of 80oz of drinks a day because of my 2 cups of coffee and dehydrating meds. But ask what can be done to lower it.

Are you getting in enough fluids? I'd recommend speaking with your Dr about this. Elevated creatinine can happen from dehydration, working out too hard, increased Protein intake. I'd also recommend checking in with your NUT in case you may need to make adjustments to your diet.

Dr office nut is who called with lab results. I drink about 100pz of Crystal light or Water daily. Take no meds except Vitamins. Have dizzy spells quite frequently and low bp. Told its not from dehydration but thats about all I know.

Just out of curiosity, do the crystal lite packets have caffeine in them? I noticed when I was shopping the other day some of them do. They were mixed right in line with the other flavors as well.

Mine do not. They have some with"energy" that do and Vitamin ones as well. I use just plain Walmart brand most of the time sugar free drink singles.< br>

Went to my pcp today. My high creatinine levels are not due to bypass as they have been that way on occasion previously. I have neurogenic bladder and hydronephrosis. This was from a spinal cord injury in 2007. Apparently that is a "normal" level for my condition. Good to know..
