S. CREAT: That alone is high but it can just be a matter of your hydration status. In a small person it is very high and the s. Creat only rises once the kidney reserve is used up. Important to keep up with and hydrate prior to rechecking.

Maybe: When I was lifting weights every day, mine ran 1.6-1.7. If you're not a fitness buff, think about stopping any medications you don't really needs -- especially NSAIDs -- and getting it repeated.
