His creatinine should be really high if he was in kidney failure. Anyone have any suggestions, ideas?
Maybe there was a mistake with the blood work? Creatinine would be high in KF. Are you comfortable with your vet or do you think you should find another vet? I wish you all the best and hope you find some answers for Tucker.
