Marty, I was diagnosed with CKD nearly 40 years ago; my eGFR is currently in the 20's. Like you, my nephrologist is recommending Jardiance or Farxiga to stabilize my eGFR. However, like you, I am concerned about the risks and infections. So, I would also appreciate hearing from others who have tried one of these medications. My nephrologist wants to check my renal function after I have been on one for 2 weeks. So, I may be able to give an update about any benefits derived.
