@hildeg Welcome to Mayo Connect! All discussions can be restarted, but as you noted, sometimes they morph into something else and so it goes to a new discussion thread.

How long ago did you find out about your kidney disease? Of course I have lots of questions, so I can help you as much as possible ;))
Do you know the cause of your declining kidney function? I just slipped recently into stage 4, with a eGFR of 28, due to an ultra-rare collagen disorder that is shutting off my filtering components. It was formally diagnosed early 2015, and reconfirmed last October 2019.

Are there any specific questions you have, how may I help you?
