Hello,
She could probably having nephrotic syndrome for which you are taking immunosuppresant drug.
Your creatinine is very high and so suggestive of severe form of kidney damage. Kindly provide your ultrasonography reports and egfr value to comment further.
You should consult nephrologist for detailed evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
