What Do Elevated Calcium And Creatinine Levels Indicate?
My husband has been going to a kidney doctor for the past 3-4 months for elevated calcium and creatinine in his bloodwork; recently the doctor did an ACE test and his numbers were high on it also (don't know the exact number). He also did several tests to rule out the most common cancers, prostrate, myelanoma (sp?), and three others. They were negative. He did a 24-hour urine tests to assess the calcium output. A lung xray or scan, I don't remember which, showed a small nodule at the bottom of one lung. He does have some trouble breathing at times. He doesn't seem to have much energy.
