Hi,Welcome to icliniq.com.I understand your concern.The reports (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity) are not alarming. Your blood creatinine level is slightly high, as it reflects your higher muscle mass, as you are fairly heavy, with a body weight of about 317 pounds. Creatinine level in the blood reflects muscle mass, so people who are overweight tend to have a slightly higher level of creatinine, and those who are underweight tend to have a lower level of creatinine.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. Thank you for your query. Based on the information provided, it appears that your creatinine level is only slightly elevated and there is no evidence of protein or blood leakage in the urine, which is positive. The exact cause for the increased creatinine is not clear based on the tests conducted thus far. However, it is possible that it could be related to incomplete bladder emptying, for which you have been advised to take medication by the urologist.
Hi,Welcome to icliniq.com.I can understand your concern.The protein in the urine is likely to be related to hypertension. The treatment would be to control the blood pressure and weight reduction. Being overweight also increases the risk of protein leak in the urine.
Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. The increase in creatinine from 0.8 to 1.2 is a significant change.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. Heavy exercise, in particular without adequate hydration, can lead to dehydration. The urine becomes darker as the kidneys try to conserve fluid in the body to replace the loss of fluid through sweating. It can also lead to damage to the muscles, and the breakdown products of damaged muscle would make the urine appear red. Excessive protein intake, in particular, the use of protein supplements, may be harmful to the kidneys.
