how much fluctuation is considered normal for our eGFR?

  1. Hi thanks for reaching out. I think you might find this article helpful: https://chronic-kidney-disease.net/clinical/fluctuations-in-egfr. Jill (Team Member)

    1. Thank you. I had read that article earlier today, although informative, I am wanting to know how much a fluctuation is considered normal in a 90 day period. I had improved my numbers from 38 to 61 in about 2 years, and from 61 to 68 in 90 days, but in the last 80 days the number is down to 61 again. Should I be worried/concerned?

      1. I can understand your concern. Have you had a chance to talk to your doctor about this? We are not medical professionals so I would not want to give you bad advise. Please keep us posted on what they say. Jill (Team Member)
