GFR down from 58 to 43.8 over 3 years

Hello, my GFR went down as yours did. I had formally been drinking a gallon of water a day while I was on immunotherapy. Since I've been off for 4 months I laxed a bit. My egfr went down again so they suggested I see my primary and start drinking a gallon of water a day again. PC did an ultrasound on my kidneys and and I was back up to the -50s and the ultrasound showed no damage to the kidneys, although my egfr was in the '40s off and on for the last year. Hopefully hydration will help you also

Yes I think so, hydration is definitely a key point, I'm trying really hard to drink 2 litres a day, some of that is in the form of tea and I'm allowing myself one coffee maxim per day.
