Hi doctors. i am a 63 year-old male. my serum creatinine is elevated--1.49. previously it was 1.33. my vitamin d is 26. previously it was 22. should i be taking vitamin d3 or is it either unnecessary or contraindicated by the elevated creatinine?

This amount of variation in test readings can also occur normally. Therapeutically given meds should be under care of and by your doc. Good luck.
