Ahhh help! Creatine levels are high

Hey all. I'm 7 weeks post op and my creatine levels are high. I admit my water intake hasn't been that great, and I know I need to intake more water.. But should I be highly concerned about this and has anybody else experienced this?

Ok, obvious question here, what did your doctor say?

Do you mean creatinine levels, as in kidney function?

Here's an article you might find helpful.

It looks like you can have high values if you are on a high Protein diet or dehydrated. Check with your doctor to see if it's high enough to worry about and what they suggest.
