GFR values explained

[Sjgoff]

I had lab work done recently and my GFR non-black was 83.  The interpretation on the result indicated that a GFR value of 60 or greater was normal.  The PA I saw said I have stage-2 kidney disease.  Is this likely with a GFR of 83?

Your test results show that your kidney disease is CKD2, you should pay attention to your disease, if the kidney disease continues to develop, you can only dialysis, kidney transplant or traditional Chinese medicine detoxification and kidney treatment.

Technically yes (see link below) but I wouldn't worry as this indicates we all have at least stage 1!! Have a relaxed weekend.

Thanks much.  That puts my mind a ease quite a bit.  It was totally out of blue.
