High creatinine after 7 years of kidney transplant

My mum (55 years) is a patient of 2 times kidney transplant. First transplant last 5 years (Donor is her sister). Second transplant is now in 7 years (Donor is not relative). Her creatinine is going up to 2.7 starting last month. She takes Bioral 25mg (BD) and Cellcept 5oomg (BD), 2.5 Prednisolone. Her 2nd transplant took in India. Now, her doctor in our country (Myanmar) suggest to go back to India ASAP. I need some advice. Can creatinine be back to normal if she takes some medicines? Normally, her creatinine is between 0.9 to 1.1.

Thanks

My Creatinine stays around the base line of 2.0 (1.9 - 2.3) and they said as long as it stays at a "baseline" (average) and doesn't shoot up drastically that it is okay. My first transplant the kidney kept the Creatinine low but this one .. it is always around 2.0. They said a few things play a factor in how well a kidney transplant works. Mine didn't work right away due to lack of blood flow to the kidney causing ATN (Acute Tubular Necrosis) and it being a 61 year old kidney that did have some trauma. Still, at least I am off of dialysis as I had waited over 6 years this time.

I know this is late but I hope this helps you anyway to feel okay about it if it sticks around a baseline even if high.
