My father has been in the hospital since Tuesday night and they can not seem, to get his creatinine level down past 2.1. He was definitely dehydrated but has been on IV. His potassium level was 5.5 when admitted but is down to 5.1 (still high). He is having an ultra sound today. We are very concerned now about his kidneys. If they cannot get his level down he will not be able to have more chemo. As of now, they are taking a break.
Does anyone have any experience with this? If so, how long does it usually take to lower the creatinine levels? It has been a rough week.
