What does a high gfr, rdw and creatanine reading mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mixed bag: High GFR ---the kidney function is better than normal. If from a 24 hour urine over collection. If not, and this is from blood work, diabetes with kidney disease causing the globulin (kidney filters) to overwork or pregnancy. Rdw--nothing to worry unless anemic or too many rbcs. High creatinine-- kidney disease, excessive protein intake, bactrim/tagamet use, dehydration.
