@cheyne what a lovely story. You are so motivated and strong to stick to a great diet. I’m so proud of you. I am 69 years old and my GFR is 13 and has been for several years. I eat healthy and live a good life and play sports

@tapdancer If I may ask, are you on dialysis?
I have been reading that once one hits 15, that the doctor recommends dialysis?
Thank you.

Hi, When I found out my mother in law at 95 with no medical help ever had lived with GFR15 for many years and survived reasonably well, I stopped worrying about my GFR. I think the important thing is to do what you can to protect your kidneys, but don't go overboard with it. You have to live a reasonable life or it is not worth the effort in my opinion.
Cheers
