I had the radical nephrectomy earlier this month and I have already had blood work and a visit to the Nephrologist. My egfr was 37.9 and creatinine was 2.01. I go back in 3 months for blood work and visit. I can say if the Doctor isn’t worried then I am not worried. But in these times we are our best advocates, so do what you have to maintain your self.

Thank you for sharing. I appreciate it. I advocate so much for not only me but whomever else needs it as I’ve been down the medical rabbit hole one too many times. I am waiting to do labs again and nephrology appointment.
Hope you are doing well after surgery. The recovery was pretty smooth.
Hoping good things for both our kidneys!
