When to be concerned about eGFR?
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) | Last Active: Dec 20, 2025 | Replies (29)Comment receiving replies
My GFR went from 70 to 62 to 53 in 9 months, which seemed awfully fast to me, especially after reading that as we get older it is normal for it to go down 1 unit per year. The last 3 times it was checked it was 53, 57, 56, so it seems to have stabilized. I’m going to concentrate on getting my blood pressure and cholesterol down.
Thank you for your help.

My eGFR is on a steady decline. 67, 64, 60 in about a year an a half. I didn't realize what was going on until the last reading. I'm on a renal diet, losing weight and hungry all of the time. Ain't we got fun!
