What Does Creatinine 3.8 Mean for FSGS Patients

Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a type of kidney disease in which scar tissue develops on parts of the kidneys that filter waste products out of the blood. Creatinine is such a kind of waste product passed out of the body by kidneys. Normal serum creatinine level ranges from 0.5-1.3 mg/dL(In different areas, the data may have a little difference). What does creatinine 3.8 mean for FSGS patients?

Creatinine 3.8 means your kidneys are severely damaged.

Creatinine is produced constantly when muscle contracts. Meat also is also a source of creatinine. But under normal circumstance, creatinine level can be kept into the normal range, because our kidneys can remove the excessive creatinine from the blood. And because our kidneys have a lot of excess capacity built into them, it is not until your kidneys lose more than 50% of their functions that blood creatinine level increases quickly. Now your creatinine is almost three times the normal range, which means your kidneys have been damaged severely.
