A member asked:

Can you have akf with a 1.65 creatinine level?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Creatinine level: Is a marker of kidney function and the normal level depends on the body muscle mass (weight),gender (higher in men than women),race (higher in african americans than others),and age (higher in older ages).So 1.65 may be a normal level for a tall muscular african american old man but maybe vey abnormal for a short tiny young Asian! Ask your doctor what eGFR this creatinine translates to for you!
