How "bad" is my kidney function? Safe to continue cycle?

[initialize]

Been on a cycle of test + primo + tren at 600, 200, 200 respectively for the past 2 months.

Bloodwork looks good overall but have some borderline kidney markers:

Creatinine 1.35 (slightly elevated)
BUN 14
EGFR 70
Cystatin C 1.1 (slightly elevated)


Was hoping to run the cycle another month -- think it's safe to do? Or should I stop, or at least stop the tren?

Why not go on TRT for a few months and see if Cystatin c gets lower? And check UACR.

Personally I'd pull the plug if cycstatin c ever goes above .9

Not awful, but keep an eye on it. How is your blood pressure? How long have you been on anabolics? Approximately how old are you? Is your bodyweight under control?

I'm 35, been on TRT for 5 years with various blasts since then. Blood pressure is always around 120/80. I'm 220 pounds, about 11% bf

OK. Thanks for the info. Just keep an eye on it. Might want to look into jardiance a bit. It seems to be helping a lot of people out myself included.

i just had cystatinine c at 1.27, creatinine at 105 tested. 750 test, 4iu gh and 50mg anadrol for last 3 weeks.
tested at week 2 of anadrol

ive pulled the plug, removed even test for 2 weeks and will cruise for 3-4 months. i plan to retest cyst. c togeather with other kidney markers, urine test and hope for the best.

i would say you dont wanna do dmg to them, that smells of serious problem in future.

The blood work isn't bad. Are you taking creatine? Your numbers are easily solved with more hydration. Will settle down once your cycle's done

Did cystatin c ever come back down?

Yea taking creatine too

Yea taking creatine too

Do you also eat a lot of red meat?

 

[bananafeet]

What about your other markers like potassium, sodium, urea etc

Usually about one meal a day of red meat

What about your other markers like potassium, sodium, urea etc

All of that is good

In that case don't sweat the labs.

When I take creatine my creatinine jumps up and falsely elevates. I typically need to wait like two or three weeks to let it clear my system before it normalizes again

Also typically helps to take 2 days off training before pulling labs

What cycle were you running when you got original labs ?
