Brief Answer:
more info is required

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

using your creatinine, body weight, age we can calculate your estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) which is a measure of your renal function. This value (1.13) could be too high or normal for you depending on your body weight. It could be from around 40mL/min (if you're about 50 Kgr) to 80mL/min (if you're 100 Kgr). 40mL/min is very low and you should be evaluated by a nephrologist. 80mL/min is OK...

I hope you find my comments helpful!
You can contact me again, if you'd like any clarification or further information.

Kind Regards!
