A member asked:
Bun 13, creat 1.19 gfr 50. is it safe to have a cat scan w/ contrast?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This is basically a normal creatinine especially if you are a solid-built lady. When I was working out every day, my creatinine ran 1.6 or 1.7. The GRF 's estimated are subscientific -- there is an adjustment for race "because black people are more muscular." You are not a kidney patient unless there is something else. Best wishes.
