From medical experience how long does it approx take for serum creatinine to elevate from 3.3 to 5.0 in a 72y man with blood pressure under control?

It depends: It depends to the root cause of the problem. Has high blood sugar or elevated high blood pressure or similar underlying causes can disturb the blood and urine chemistry . Deterioration become faster if underlying cause is not controlled well.
