Hi,

Your mother is having CKD along with CAD, T2DM and HT. Even, with use of Injection Lasix, if her creatinine is increasing, this shows, that the kidney is undergoing in renal failure. In such a situation, I will advise you, to consult some nephrologist about this. He may suggest you to put the patient on dialysis or even a kidney transplant may be advised depending on the condition and feasibility of the patient for it.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
