Hi,
I'm a 53 year old male.
About a year and a half ago I went thru a routine check up and my eGFR was normal at 88.
Then early May of this year I did another yearly test and my eGFR went down to 51 !!! which indicates a stage 3a of CKD - all other results were fine.
I was very worried but my GP told me to retest again in a months time, needless to say I spent the month reading stuff about kidney disorders and came to this forum, I read the recommendation from "Cora" to drink plenty of water before the test and so I did... spent the last 48 hours drinking no heavy meal, no meat.
Today I did the test and it bounced back to 84 !!!
How can this be possible? could the dehydration factor contribute that much?
