Went to the ED for sprain ankle then went home 2 days later adominal pain and vomiting. then admitted to the hospital for kidney failure . My husbands cousin died with Marfan Syndrome white waiting for a heart transplant. Could my daughter high Creantine Levels of 8.9 be related to Marfan Syndrome?

Hi
Dearrenged kidney function test is not related to marfan syndrome. Marfan syndrome affects heart, vessels, skeletal and eyes. In skeletal system, there can be overgrowth of limbs and finger. In heart, there can be valvular dysfunction. Dilatation of aorta can be a manifestation.
Dislocation of lens can be a manifestation.
Take care
