Is this kft result worrisome?
I was lately getting frequent urination and insomnia.
Tested sugar, a1c and cbc all normal.
Coming to kft and lft attached report.
In december 2023, i did a kft agter coming back from a different country, my creatine was 1.24, then i repeated it after 2 weeks with consultation, along with urine routine and culture, it was normal. Creatine was then 1.03
Is it because I eat nonveg quite often and workout daily? Heavy lifting?
Please guide me doctors. I have ine ectopic kidney as found in usb abdomen. I am scared if I will end up with ckd.
And can i take 1 scoop of whey/plant protein alternate days? As i dont want to go for nonveg if affects my creatine levels :(

Hi
Ectopic kidney needs regular follow up with KFT, urine analysis and blood pressure monitoring.
Creatinine maybe upto to 1.2-1.4mg/dL in muscular individuals.
Since you have ectopic kidney I would not suggest protein intake more than 1.2g per kg per day.

High protein diet can increase the creatinine
You can work out and take plant based protein
Better to avoid whey and other supplements
Make sure protein consumption does not exceed more than 1 to 1.5 g /kg/day.
Pls do a urine routine evaluation also
U can do a cystatin c level to confirm if there is any kidney damage as such
