A doctor has provided 1 answer
Worsening CKD: You will know if your chronic kidney disease is getting worse if your bun, creatinine potassium, phosphorus and parathyroid levels are increasing in your blood. At the same time, your blood calcium, carbon dioxide levels may be decreasing. See a nephrolgoist to get a better answer to your question.
