Will creatine supplementation affect BUN & Creatinine lab results?

I ask this because both have been in range for the past six months and I start supplementing with creatine a few weeks ago and my BUN goes to 28 (top of range 20) and my creatinine goes to 1.37 (top 1.26). My egfr is still within range.
Anyone else experience this ever? Anything to worry about?
 
I've been told that it doesn't but I am no expert so maybe someone else can chime in. Userat204 is very knowledgeable on bloodwork stuff. I do know that being a bodybuilder, constantly breaking down muscles can increase these. It is supposed to be normal for bodybuilders to have somewhat elevated creatinine and BUN levels.
 
Mine are always high too. I read somewhere that these can be high with guys that have alot of muscle and is common with bodybuilders.
