I also had a creatinine level of 7 after further diagnosis it was determined I had anca vasculitis mpa. And required plasma pherisis treatments. Six cycles of cytoxin a form of chemotherapy. And steroids and Imuran. After 1 year my creatinine has stabilized around 3 with no dialysis required. Although my kidneys are only functioning at 20 percent. I am maintaining these levels for 1 year now
