Do anyone have information on creatinine urine/ micro albumin
Both my levels are high just wondering if anyone has this before, and what did your healthcare team do?
I’m sorry your levels are high. I think many of us with lupus may experience this. My doctor has said if mine gets too high it’s a sign of lupus affecting my kidneys. I have been placed in medication that is said to protect my kidneys from further damage.
I would definitely speak with your doctor about what your levels mean and how he would proceed in getting the levels down if possible. Here is a link that may help to explain it some

I hope this helps some ~Racquel~ Team MemberI am taking 25 mg losartan, 2.5 mg prednisone, 200 mg hydroxychloroquine, and levels went up. I just added the compression stocking. I really want to increase my prednisone.

This test is used to measure the amount of albumin present in your urine. Depending on the levels present in your blood (and possibly urine) may be a sign of kidney disease. As Racquel mentioned, reaching out to your healthcare provider would be best to discuss your results/concerns.
