Suggest Treatment For Increased Creatinine Levels And Hydration In Lungs

Hi, My dad had swelling in his legs since 3 months. Then 1 month ago, he had pnemonia & was hospitalized. At that time his creatinine level was 2.2. Then we took him to nephrologist where he gave him Lasix. His sugar level increased. He had neat alcohol 2 weeks before & since then he is not feeling well. At that time his creatine level increased to 3.2. He has no stamina & sleeps the entire day. Doctor changed the medicine & gave him Dytor, Arkemin 0.1 & amlopress 5+50. Now his sugar level & BP is fine. But his creatine level increased to 6.9 & hydration in lungs. What to do? Is it lung or kidney problem? He has no swelling in his legs now.

In my opinion your dad case if he had no other underlying disease, increased ingestion of cooked meat , excessive protein intake, lack of excercise, certain medications could cause that increases its level but it actually suggestive for a renal impairment condition. For your dad for now I would recommend your nephrologist for some investigations especially U/S to clarify the main cause of edema which is if bilateral due to a systemic disease in the renal system.
