@u4gmlglm His doctors never dud a biopsy. They say it was due to Diabetes over the years. What is so discouraging is that his numbers have been great, his blood pressure has been great. So it was a shock. We expected no change if any. Saw doctor yesterday and she had a "You can do all those things, and it just might not help". We have terrible doctors with little choices. I asked for a Medical Nutrition Therapy referral and she asked me what that was. ...Not a Mayo doctor. Sorry for the small rant. Just scared and frustrated.

@sultanvr My GFR did a rapid decline within a few weeks. What was the timeline on your GFR. Use your insurance company to find a doctor if possible. Not sure if Mayo gives referral but they were quick to see me. I was discouraged with my doctor. But everything I am reading, short of stem cell, there is no way to reverse chronic, which just means your GFR is down more than 30 days.
