Creatinine level: To answer that properly i would need to know more about your medical history, what your level was the previous time you were tested, what medications you are taking and what your BUN (blood urea nitrogen and GFR (glomerular filtration rate). I would also need to know if you had anything specific going wrong with your urinary tract or kidney such as a UTI or kidney stones at the time of the test.
