@robbie44 As you probably have read here on this support group, we look at trends rather than a one-time lab result, unless it is dramatic.

Do you have access to look at the other lab results you have for eGFR? And as a diabetic, take a look at the medications you are taking, to see if there are side effects that might be causing changes in your eGFR.

Thank you for your reply. I suspect I have been ill for a while but poor medical services have resulted in my not knowing. I didn't have much in the way of indications of a problem, and I actually felt the best I have felt for a long time. I do have my results from before and have looked at them but there isn't much difference between than and now which confuses me. I think my GFR is 40.
