I'm a patient of Dr. K C Kedia and I've been having some trouble reaching him. I've got a few issues going onmy creatinine level is at 3.56, I'm diabetic, and I have COPD. Lately, I've been having a hard time breathing because of a persistent cough. I've tried using Duolin and Budecort nebulizers twice, but they haven't really helped. Plus, my legs and hands have started swelling up. I'm taking Dytor 10 in the morning and 5 in the evening for that. I'm wondering if there's any antibiotic medicine you could recommend that might bring me some relief? Also, my doctor vaccinated me for influenza pneumonia.

need hospitalization and check creatinine level again and proceed

I've been diagnosed with albumin in my urine, and I also have diabetes and high blood pressure. My blood urea and creatinine levels are at 1.2 and 40, respectively. Are these levels risky, and what steps should I take next?

In conclusion, albumin in urine is an early sign that should not be ignored, especially if you're already dealing with diabetes and high blood pressure. However, since your kidney function tests are still normal, this is a good sign, and with proper management, the risk of kidney damage can be minimized.
