High creatinine indicates kidney disease which could be due to long standing Diabetes and Hypertension. We need to do some tests which I have mentioned below.
You need to keep your blood sugar levels and blood pressure well controlled.
Please consult a dietitian for a diet plan.
At age of 73; creatinine of 1.4 means kidney function is reduced by 40%
However this shouldn't be cause of anxiety and can be managed medically
Next Steps
Do the following tests:
1) USG KUB with prostate
2) Urine routine and UPCR
3) Calcium phosphorus
