Creatinine level

Hey guys I'm new to the forum, just wondering does anyone know a conversion rate for creatinine levels? I see a lot of people on here say their creatinine is 1.4 etc mine is 67 and Im told this is very good. But I can't relate to the posts on here because I assume most of the American posts are using a different system if measurement?

Here in the US creatinine is measured in mg/dL. Yours sounds like it's in umol/L. If that's the case your creatinine is excellent, 67 is equal to .7 here. This calculator may help:
