Doubt on creatinine

Present my creatinine is 1.3 (lab upper limit is 1.2). This creatinine behaviour was observed from 2023. Current DTPA RENOGRAM gfr is 84. No protein leak in urine. Usg kidneys structure normal but right kidney little small 8.5. I have hypothyroidism since 10yrs. Using thyronorm 112mcg. No BP, no diabetic. Surprisingly I have seen my past 10yrs means 2015 reports where my creatinine was 1.4. But I don't this at that time. After 2015 l, I took more non veg meat, more chicken biriyanis, atleast monthly twice alcohol upto 2023. 2023 only got to know about creatinine. My doubt is 1) whether I have CKD or not? 2) why my creatinine not increased from 2015 onwards with the worst bad habits.

Consultation request

He experiencing pain in stomach and kidney areas. I suspect it might be due to calculi (kidney or urinary stones). And he already done some initial tests, including a diagnostic report, and recently had a CT scan as well. However, now we would like to consult with specialist for a more detailed and in-depth evaluation to understand the exact cause of his pain and discuss the best treatment options moving forward.

Can it give an incorrect report?

Hello doctors, In my urine routine test, protein was found. Now I want to do a 24-hour urine protein test. Near my home, all labs are charging too much. One lab is affordable, but it is far from my home. My question is: If I collect urine for 24 hours and carry the sample to that far lab, will sunlight or travel affect the test result? Can it give an incorrect report?
