It's important to note that certain medications can interfere with the results, so it's best to consult with your doctor and inform him about all the factors that could potentially cause the
creatinine levels to be lower or higher than
normal — including the diet, previous or ongoing medical conditions, currently used medications and pregnancy — so that he can decide if further tests and analysis are needed.

I have never worried about a patient with a low -
normal or slightly low

These tests may return results of increased blood calcium, which in severe cases can lead to hypercalcemia, and higher than
normal levels of phosphorous and
creatinine, both indicators of the kidney's functioning status.
However, since
creatinine levels are dependent on lean body mass, an underweight cat in renal failure may have
normal blood
creatinine levels, so the diagnosis of kidney failure could be missed with bloodwork alone.
For instance, the UK Idexx laboratory considers the top -
normal blood
creatinine level in cats to be 177 umol / l, which is about 2.0 mg / dl in the American system.

creatinine.
The dog's BUN (blood urea nitrogen level) was already at 32 (

(ref) When periodic monitoring consistently determines your pet's
creatinine levels to be in the «high end
normal» range (i.e., 1.4 mg / dl for dogs and 1.6 in cats,), I would still be suspicious that a kidney problem is in its early stages (IRIS Stage 1).
Since
normal kidneys allow very little albumin protein in your pet's blood to escape into its urine, there are tests that check for its increased presence without comparing it to the amount of
