Hi, My brother has been detected with Kidney disease and from last 2 months his createnine levels have dropped from 8.9 to 5.5. He was suffering from high BP. His BP levels are normal now and is also on strict diet. Doctor has suggested for a transplant but since his createnine levels are decreasing is transplant required?
Thanks for your consultation at Chat Doctor !  I have gone through your case and being your physician I completely understand your concern. As far as your case is concerned I think you should follow your doctor advise... Decreasing creatinine from 8 to 5 doesn't give impression that kidneys function has returned to normal... The specific investigation is DTPA renal scan which accurately tells you about the renal function reserve.... Get the DTPA renal scan done and consult the renal transplant surgeon and proceed accordingly... Hope your quarry is adequately answered if you still have any feel free to ask... Regards Chat Doctor.
