According to the information, you underwent some medical tests and the feedback indicated a slightly higher creatinine level and a high urea nitrogen content. These are mechanisms that are directly related to kidney function. Symptoms can include feeling tired, swelling, and stenosis. Diarrhea, urine smell, and hair loss are some of the side effects of whey protein can cause too. The causes can be dehydration, certain medications, or kidney issues. You should ask a nephrologist for advice about what to do next.

When getting a blood test, it may show if someone has too much 'NIC' in their system. This happens when people eat too many things with salt or if their kidneys are not working well. If you feel thirsty and tired all the time, or if your feet and legs swell up - those could be signs that something is wrong because of too much 'NIC'.

Your creatinine level is a bit above normal and your eGFR is a bit below normal. These are not a big deal and can occur due to age or some health problems in the past like angioplasty. It may not be visible in the beginning. Thus, living a healthy lifestyle such as eating well, drinking enough water, and making regular doctor visits can greatly assist your kidneys.

Kidneys filter waste from blood. If creatinine levels rise, kidneys struggle. Tiredness, swelling, and nausea occur. Causes include hypertension, diabetes, certain medications. Doctors prescribe medicine, diet changes, sometimes dialysis. Following medical advice preserves kidney function.
