No: When your BUN is slightly elevated but your creatinine is normal, it usually means you a mildly dehydrated. Not taking in enough fluids is a primary cause of kidney stones also so you should make an effort to take in enough fluids in your diet every day.

I had bloodwork done on tuesday that came back with a bun/creatinine ratio of 23. All other tests were normal. On wednesday night i had a kidney stone attack. Would that have raised my ratio?
I have elevated blood creatinine (1.34 mg/dL) and all other tests lie in normal range (blood albumin&protein, spot urine ACR, kidney USG, BUN, Urea, U. Acid). I used to lift heavy weights but quit. I always had elevated creatinine. Something to worry?
I had one more quick question. If bun 25, creatinine 1.5, bun/creat ratio 17, egfr 58...The egfr means im in stage 3 CKD right? 58% kidney function?
