What Causes A Large Stone In The Kidney With Elevated Creatinine Value?

Hello, My name is Barbara. I am 64,5 tall and weigh aprox. 170 lbs.I was told several yrs ago that I should not use NSAIDS because my Creatinin was elivated. My Doctor didn t tell me why and I never thought to ask.A Psyiatrist told me to take 1\ 32 miligram Motrin a day. I didn t. A Gastroenteroligist told me my CAT scan showed a fairly large stone in my left kidney,but said not to worry about it.Now it is July4th and I have a severe tooth ache. I went to the E.R. and they gave me penicillin and told me to take Motrin for the pain. I have 10/32 Percocet For chronic pain, but one of those doesn t help. I took 2 and that helped, but I can t keep doing that. I took 50mg of Motrin along with my afternoon dose of Percoset and that helped a bit more. Can I keep taking that untill I get my tooth out or is that dangerious? I m also worried about the high Creatinine and tne kidney stone. What should I do? The Dr. s are closed. I have a new doctor, but I don t like him and I m thinking about switching to the other Dr. in that office in Springdale. I m afraid something is going to kill me .Thank you and God Bless,Barbara

Dear Patient,

I recommend you to hold any NSAID since they may precipitate your renal function for several mechanisms, direct and indirect. I would suggest percoset every 12 hours and then increasing to maximum 3-4 a day. However, oxycodone may accumulate if you have a severe renal insufficiency. Take care
