Kidney problem

2018-07-13 03:05:44
My father is 75 years old , he is right side paralytic.He alsonhas diabetes and hypertension. He recently had UTI and is fine now. But his lab results show s.cretanine 1.042 whereas 5 months it was 0.6.Does this means he has started developing any kind of kidney failure? Also his urine analysis states Protein and blood as positive, RBCs 8-10/hpf and epithelial cells 5-6/hpf. I am very concerned as he is already suffering from many health issues. I dont wish one more gets added up. Please guide
