A member asked:
How soon before a ct with contrast do you need a creatine blood work done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If you do not have kidney disease, any time between a month to a day before would be okay. If your kidney function is not stable, radiologist can do a Point of Care creatinine, just before the procedure.

Blood work and 24hr urine test done. Total protein and creatine within limits. Urine showed creatine 3.4 g/24hr and protein 180 mg/24hr. Are these numbers cause for concern? There was spillage which I put into the can and may have went over 24hrs?
