Just a thought. There is great controvery in the medical field reflected in medical journals whether it is correct to automatically dump people over 70 into stage 3 ckd based on the gfr threshold of 60. I will go back in January and get retested with blood and urine tests.
Thank you. My doctor said to increas my hydration and we will retest in January. He insists I do not have CKD, but it is really scary!
