Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Creatinine and urea appears to be moderately increased.
2. Age related elevation of these values is common. However, due to history of diabetes and hypertension, glomerular filtration rate evaluation is necessary.
3. Possible early renal damage. Need to control blood sugar and blood pressure within the normal range to prevent further damage.
4. Also weight reduction, moderate exercises and diet control with good hydration is essential. Medications should be regular.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.

creatinine level indicates the function of kidneys. high creat levels indicate that the kidneys are not filtering blood properly.
an underlying an diabetic conditions can lead to chronic changes in kidneys vasculature, and therefore reduces the kidneys blood purifying capacity.
