Hey all
Blood test for creatinine came back high recently at 121umol/L with normal range being 58 - 110umol/L
....
Blood tests done over the years:
(Other normal ranges for other tests: EGFR = above 60ml/min/1.73m2 AND Urea 2.5 - 7.8mmol/L)
12/10/2016 = Creatinine 103umol/L
13/01/2017 = Creatinine 89umol/L
30/03/2017 = Creatinine 92umol/L
09/09/2017 = Creatinine 89umol/L
09/01/2018 = Creatinine 87umol/L
23/11/2018 = Creatinine 90umol/L
01/04/2019 = Creatinine 77umol/L
28/08/2020 = Creatinine 107umol/L
01/09/2020 = Creatinine 99umol/L
14/06/2022 = Creatinine 121umol/L
23/11/2018 = EGFR 90ml/min/1.73m2
01/04/2019 = EGFR 90ml/min/1.73m2
28/08/2020 = EGFR 75.68ml/min/1.73m2
01/09/2020 = EGFR 83ml/min/1.73m2
28/08/2020 = Urea 6.7mmol/L
...............
I do consume a lot of salt with every meal, I eat about 120-150g protein per day through beef/chicken/fish etc.. I weight train 6 days a week.
I’ve had this really bad fatigue that hits me at certain times, and the fatigue has been especially bad the past few months (Maybe thats because of the higher than ever Creatinine?)
In 12/10/2016 you can see my creatinine was pretty high back then, I was consuming hardly any dietary/supplemental salt back then)
…….....
What should I be looking at to reduce creatinine, I’m getting re tested In two weeks, is there any other blood tests I should request apart from EGFR and Urea?
