Question 1

how to lower creatinine level of 2.2?

Accepted Answer

Why is it 2.2: Lots of causes. Could mean kidney disease, med side effect, several other things. You'd lower it by correcting correctable causes, if there are any.

Question 2

what does a creatinine level of 2.2 mean?

Accepted Answer

Kidney disease: Creatinine of 2.2 is elevated and elevation in creatinine is usually due to kidney disease. Please see your doctor to determine the cause and initiate treatment to keep it from getting worse.

Question 3

what does a serum creatinine level of 2.2 mean?

Accepted Answer

Kidney dysfunction: A serum creatinine elevation like yours is a sign of kidney dysfunction or insufficiency.  This needs to be evaluated and treated to avoid kidney failure.

Question 4

six years diabetic creatinine level 1.05 before two week egfr 82.9 after two weeks creatinine 1.09 is it normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: The difference between the two readings is not meaningful. However, if the level keeps rising, that would be a cause for concern. Please discuss with your doctor about getting your urine tested for microalbuminuria.

Question 5

my aunt who lives in canada has a creatinine level of 151 and egfr 33. and for the past two weeks has been passing blood with her urine. ?

Accepted Answer

Low GFR: That is a very high creatinine level (not good) and a low GFR (not good either) + blood in the urine (not good).  She needs to see a doctor (nephrologist if possible) to determine why this is happening (which could be many possibilities).  Kidneys can be damaged very quickly for a variety of reasons, so hopefully your aunt will not delay getting a diagnosis!

Question 6

i had two 24 hour urine tests done a few years apart. the urine creatinine for the first was 31 mg/dl, and the urine creatinine for the second was 39 mg/dl. are these levels normal for a female?

Accepted Answer

Talk to your Dr.: Normal random urine creatinine concentrations range from 40-300 mg/dL in males and 37-250 mg/dL in females. Urine creatinine (24-hour urine collection) values can range from 500 to 2000 mg/day (4,420 to 17,680 mmol/day) or 11 to 20 mg per kg of body mass per day for women (97.2 to 176.8 µmol/kg/day). Talk to your Dr about your results. Abnormal ranges can indicate kidney problems.

Question 7

i did kidney transplant before two month and after surgery my creatinine is 1.2 but now 1.8, is safe now or how can i lower this level?

Accepted Answer

Rising creatinine: With your rapid rise of serum creatinine, get in touch with your transplant team (t). The possibilities causing this increase will be discussed with you. Get in touch with your t as soon as possible to preserve your transplanted kidney. Good luck.

Question 8

my uncle is having repeated hiccups from last two years ..urea creatinine levels normal and normal endoscopy study..he is not smoker.wats management??

Accepted Answer

Medication: hiccups are usually  related to irritation under the diaphragm and are not associated with any specific disease process. blood tests and endoscopies will not reveal an origin.  Tranqualizers such as thorazine (chlorpromazine) may at times prove useful otherwise spontaneous ending of symptoms can be expected.

Question 9

my father has a 1.4 a creatinine level and he sufering a gout of both of two feet can he survive for kidney disease?

Accepted Answer

Yes: He must control gout with Allopurinol to keep his serum uric acid level below 6 mg/dl.  That will also reduce the risk of progressive loss of kidney function. Alcohol intake should be minimal. Regardless of what others say diet has little effect on uric acid level.

Question 10

mom is diabetic.she had urinary tract infection.serum creatinine levels are reduced from 9.2 to 2 after two times dialysis.suggest helpful diet ?

Accepted Answer

Kidney recovery: Wow. Her kidneys may be improving !  Optimal diet for her includes modest protein portions, about 4 oz daily, low dairy, low bean, low salt, low sugar, low saturated fat and low cholesterol.  More precisely, 40-60 gram protein, 800 mg phosphate, 2000 mg sodium, 2000 mg potassium, and 1800-2000 calorie ADA diet.
