Hello, Stephanie! How are you?
Creatinine, as explained by the NIH, is a chemical in the blood that is used to check how well your kidneys are functioning. An elevated level can indicate that kidney function is compromised.
Most doctors will check to keep an eye on kidney function, if someone is diabetic or taking medications for high blood pressure.
Is there anything else I can help with?
She was on bactrim antibiotic when she had teat done. Could that have raised creatinine? Is 2.89 really high?
Bactrim did that to me once, too. It tends to cause some dehydration and such.
Ideally, they should check again, in about 3 weeks to a month to see if it returns to normal.
Oh and the values can vary from person to person. It depends on whether her doctor thinks it is off for her, because certain medications and health conditions can affect it.
