Hi everyone,
I’m currently in the process of joining the army and recently completed my medical exam. Everything went well—blood work, vision, hearing—all good, except my creatinine level came back a bit high.
I’m active and in good shape (gym, swimming, biking), so this result surprised me. Now I’m worried—could this be a reason for me to be rejected? Has anyone here experienced the same thing?

none of us can really say, It will be up to the RMO to decide. It will depend how high they were, and what that might impact - do you need meds, do you just need to tweak you diet, is there a danger for you or others (because if you go down in battle you are now a liability to your team) if you are put into austere conditions, etc., etc.
You will have to wait for the RMO to make their decision and go from there.
