What Causes Sudden Rise In Heart Beat Post Kidney Transplantation?

Hi, I recently had a kidney transplant ( 20th November) and my results of creatinine have always been steady between 90-110. Had a blood test on Wednesday and the creatinine has jumped to 127. I have to got for more blood tests tomorrow. What I m worried about is that ice just checked my blood pressure which is okay at 122 over 26 but my pulse is 178. I haven t done any exercise etc I have been sat in the same place for over an hour. I have also checked this more than once. Anything I need to worry about?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with sudden rise in your creatinine level with a pulse rate 178 and blood pressure 122/28 post kidney transplantation I will suggest you are gradually developing a Cardiac shock syndrome

In view of this please do an ECG and ECHO and schedule an appointment with a cardiologist specialist for expert clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription

I hope this helps Regards
