@bobfree242 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Kidney disease can be pretty darned sneaky, and our bodies learn to adapt to lessening function.

Have you regularly been seeing doctors, and having blood tests for your health? Chronic kidney disease can be caused by unregulated high blood pressure, or diabetes, medication side effects long term, genetics, or lifestyle.

What is your function or eGFR level now? Have they determined what the cause of your function decline is?
