Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...  For 5 years my creatinine levels have averaged between 2.5-3.2.  I recently had a MAJOR bout of UTI.  My latest blood test indicated my creatinine level at 4.8.  I have noticed that since the UTI, passing fluid is not as easy as it once was.  Is the 4.8 creatnine level an indication of worsening kidney function or can it be contributed to the recent bout of UTI that I just had?
