Hello, Your grandfathers creatinine is very high, and he is most certainly going into renal failure. This is diabetic nephropathy and caused due to diabetes. I don't believe dialysis can be avoided. Medically you can't call him asymptomatic with a great of 8,as soon his output will be nil. He will need dialysis sooner rather than later.
