Hello and welcome to HCM. As an Urologist,i can understand your anxiety.
You're having APKD(adult polycystic kidney disease)with kidney failure.
That's seen in your creatinine report, with anemia and previous report.
You'll need to see your nephrologist,with the following tests:
1. urine routine,culture and 24 hours urine protein.
2. blood routine,uric acid,electrolytes,LFT,RBS,PSA and platelets.
3. ultrasound scan-KUB,with residual urine.
4. isotope renogram.
According to reports,expert treatment can be advised.
