Hi,

I am Manish age 38 from India. I went for routine checkup and i was not having any problem. Life was going good. Report suggested that my Creatinine 1.42

Phosphorus 7.1

Tri-Iodothyronine Total (TT3) 0.78

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) 8.93

Vitamin D-3 (25 - Hydroxy) 18.13

Doctors prescribed me medicine for Uric Acid and Thyroid and Vitamin supplement. I was having lots of beer and non-veg, so doctor advised me to avoid beer and non-veg.

After a month the Creatinine was 1.57 and Uric Acid was 5.2. On doctor advice i went for ultra sound and urine checkup. Both reports were normal. Now doctor is suggesting it is CIN. nothing to worry about and prescribed me Nodosis, Nephro Save, Zyloric, and thyroid medicine

Since then my uric acid and thyroid is normal but creatinine is ranging between 1.20 to 1.57

I do no what is CIN. I am still worried as i lost my father who was 74yr old with CKD problem last month. I don't know why my creatinine is high as I don't have sugar, bp, or urine problems, do I need to go for any further test that will help me in knowing the reason. Please advise.

    Hi Manish

    CIN i expect stands for Chronic Interstitial Nephritis.

    If you do an internet search it will help you understand what it is and what the treatments are. Do not search for CIN as there are other conditons with the same initials. Search the whole name.

    Good luck

      Thanks for your reply.. I am consulting nephrologist from AIIMS, Delhi. He only suggested that it is CIN, and creatinine should automatically go down within few months. But this is not happening, and it's now over seventh month. It is going like 1.42, 1.36, 1.57, 1.20, 1.41, 1.33, 1.27, 1.35, 1.29, 1.37. Is there any thing to be worried

      If you plot your creatinine levels are they generally trending down? If so it may be fine; but I'd definitely talk with my nephrologist about it in my next appointment. If the data isn't trending downward is it overall stable?

      And I agree with what you're hearing from others--a biopsy may be very helpful.

    Hi Manish! CIN is chronic interstitial nephritis. I am not sure if you are consulting with any Nephro. If not, pl do so rather than going to general physician. As far as cretanine is concerned, individual reading is not as important as the trend. Pl see if your cretanine is rising, by regular blood tests. Tour nephrologist might also suggest biopsy for ascertaining as to what is the exact cause of abnormal cretanine values.

      I am also from Delhi, and have been diagnosed with CIN due to reflux nephropathy in my biopsy report. I also got to know about my kidney problem due to my elevated BP and subsequent tests. I suggest you to cut down on your binge drinking and protein intake, as high value of cretanine might also be on account of protein diet. Keep yourself hydrated and keep your BP under check. More often than not, BP is must in most of the kidney problems.

      Thanks Anuj, good to hear that you are also from Delhi. As i said earlier, my BP, Sugar, Prostate and Kidney size are normal. Do you know any Doctor or Hospital you trust? It would be great if you could share the details.

      That's very good, Manish, if you don't have BP and sugar. I am taking medication for my elevated BP. If you are okay, we can discuss in details separately.
