Hi Greenie and Jeanie, Jeanie, I think that your making a mistake about your Creatinine level being at 103. You probably misread it The correct number should be 1.03 or 1.3 just like Greenie's is and has been for years.
Greenie, I don't know why your doctor is telling you that your Creatinine is high. With a count like yours it is perfectly normal. I wish mine were that low... 18's, Marty On Sat, Jun 16, 2012 at 2:42 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > ** > Jeanie, my creatinine is between 1.3 and 1.4, it's been that way for > years.
