Creatinine levels and steroids

I am about to start on a small cycle of deca and test, but badly need a question answered before I do. I got a DUI last year for alcohol and am on probation. Because of this, I have to take random drug tests in the form of a urinalysis. Why this is required of me for a DUI I'm not quite sure, but I have no problem passing them. They only test for drugs of abuse (marijuana, cocaine, opiates, etc.), none of which do I use, and not for steroids.

However, I can get in trouble for a "dilute", which is when people try to drink too much water and fool the test by diluting the sample below the cutoff point for the drugs. The way they measure whether or not the sample is diluted is by testing creatinine levels.

My question is this, would my creatinine levels be significantly affected one way or the other by a weekly dose of 300mg Test En. and 250 mg Deca? If so, would it be an increase or decrease? The reason this is important is that their high end cutoff is very high since they're really only looking for people who dilute the sample and not people who eat lots of protein and exercise regularly. (Information given to me by the lab owner when I inquired about a high-protein diet and lots of exercise)

Let me be clear, I am NOT looking for a way to beat the drug test. The lab that is contracted to do the testing doesn't have the capability to test for steroids and I wouldn't want to try to beat it if they did. I'm just trying to get back into shape after a year layoff from hard workouts and have always found a small cycle is a great way to do so. But before I start this cycle, I need to know if I'm taking a chance of throwing my creatinine levels totally out of whack by doing so.

Thank you for any advice you can give on this matter.
 
I can tell you that I tested out at about 1960 ng/dl last year at the end of a cycle and my creatine levels were almost absolutely normal. I could be mixing up lab results. If someone differs, I can pull the paper and check....
