I am 89 and feel well with CKD G3b/A2, well controlled T2DM, HTN, and Hypothyroidism; I have unusually low non-HDL cholesterol. Ten months ago I had an NSTEMI, max. troponin 446, I have CAD, atrial fibrillation (I am on apixaban), calcific mitral and aortic valves, a strong heart (ejection fraction 0.69, no left or right ventricle hypertrophy). Both hsCRP and u-ACR were much higher than expected today. Every other biomarker was as expected. Especially u-Albumin is extremely high, about 5 times higher than it was ever before. Is it possible (or perhaps even probable) that inflammation and albuminuria were high because of the recent vaccinations? Thank you! National Kidney Foundation May 1 Vaccinations result in an activation of the immune system and this would result in an increase of the C-reactive protein (CRP). Fever and inflammation result in an increase in urine albumin. These increases should be transient. This should resolve with time and return to expected ranges over the course of 3-6 months.
