Hello @sameeh123,

You may notice that I moved your message to the Kidney & Bladder group on Connect, as it might be easier to meet fellow members to join in and share their thoughts about creatinine levels.

Here’s another great discussion you might wish to view, where you can also meet @kamama94 @rosemarya @trishanna @irenec @randyr @sue1952 -

Kanaaz, I have a question. My understanding is that creatinine is a marker only to identify kidney issues. The creatinine itself is not damaging. It only indicates a kidney issue since the creatinine may not be cleared by the kidneys if they are damaged. If that is true is it a good idea to reduce your creatinine level by tweaking your normal habits thus giving an incorrect reading on how well the kidneys are functioning? Thanks.
