Thanks for contacting HCM
I am sorry to hear about your mother and her elevated creatinine levels. Creatinine is a by product of protein metabolism and is used to measure kidney function. Your mother's elevated creatinine indicates she has end stage renal disease or kidney failure. She can not do anything to reduce your levels other than through dialysis. I recommend that she follow up with her doctors and proceed with dialysis.
Hope this answers your question. Please contact us again with your concerns.
