Hello
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
Your husband's creatinine has shot up above normal limits.
Is he diabetic? Does he have fever? Does he have reduced urine output? Is he dehydrated?
I think he should be under observation in a hospital rather than at home. Do you have an ecg of his taken in last one or 2 days? Kindly get a 2d echo, and serum nt pro bnp, and serum trop I levels done for him.
Feel free to discuss further,
Regards

i have given him Boiled egg only white part in breakfast. Is it becoz of tht or due to medicine?

Hello,

Did he start the tazloc trio medicine recently. Creatinine may rise due to dehydration vomiting low blood pressure or medications or urinary obstruction like prostate etc. Having diabetes and blood pressure increases the risk. Egg white is unlikely to cause such sudden rise. Its good that you be treated in a hospital because treatment at home will not be complete.
