@macbar0503 I am in my 70's and would never expect a GFR to be above 60. I didn't seek a nephrologist until I hit a GFR of mid-30's. I think anything in the 50's is not seen as a big problem. But a sudden drop might be something to look at in terms of hydration and medications you take.
The GFR goes down with age, normally, I have been told.
I have an autoimmune disorder and I needed to check my kidneys out for that reason. I am reassured and hope you can be too.
