  5. I was diagnosed with CKD last month and my creatinine was 4.1. The doctor did a biopsy and found that 8 out of 20 glomeruli are shrunk due to IgA. I have no swelling on my face or feet, no blood in the urine, and my protein levels are high. My BP is 125/85. Its been a week on medication and my creatinine dropped to 7.
