curious, I ve had chemo/radiation for cervical cancer and the chemo was stopped because my creatine level was leveled and I was dehydrated with that said I m now experiencing some discomforted in my back where my right kidney is ... I m really tired but I don t have any of the other symptoms that point to chronic kidney disease. I do have an upcoming appointment with a neurphogoist but not until Feb 19th
Hello Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have Cancer of the cervix and was under treatment of Radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
The elevated creatinine level indicate obstructive uropathy on Rt side mostly due to infiltration oft of ureteric orifice by cancer cervix or due to radiation Cystitis.
Please consult qualified Nephrologist and urologist and get following basic test done to confirm the cause of elevated Creatinine levels. 1) Routine urine test and culture 2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen 3) Endoscopic examination of bladder (Cystoscopy).
Further treatment will depend upon the results of these test . You may need to put D.J stent in your Rt renal unit to decompress the same.
