female cat w/ benign vomiting 1 year ago -> 3 weeks elevated SDMA + creatinine

Thanks for reaching out with your concern. Given your cat's history of benign vomiting and the recent lab results showing elevated SDMA and creatinine, it's understandable to feel concerned about her kidney health.



These markers suggest that her kidneys might not be filtering waste products as efficiently as they should. In cats, elevated SDMA and creatinine are often early indicators of kidney disease, which can develop gradually. Other potential causes could be dehydration or dietary factors, so it's essential to rule out these, too.



For at-home care, ensure she has plenty of fresh water available at all times to stay hydrated. Feeding her a high-quality, kidney-supportive diet can help slow progression if she's starting to show signs of kidney issues.



Watch for signs of serious issues such as increased vomiting, lethargy, decreased appetite, weight loss, or changes in urination. These symptoms may indicate a progression in kidney problems and require prompt veterinary attention.



While these tips can help manage her condition, it’s important to have a more detailed discussion. I recommend booking a video consult with one of our vets on Dial A Vet. They can guide you on the next steps, including any additional diagnostics or dietary changes that might be beneficial for your cat.
