I also had an EGFR of about 56. I had contrast for the MI scan and no problem. Best of luck with the ablation. My ablation helped push my EGFR up to 65 where it's stayed since over the last few years.
My low EGFR may have been a false reading though as I was exercising a lot and the muscle breakdown may have pushed the figure down. My creatinine test was normal.
Everyone with AF should have a kidney function test, it should be a standard annual thing but in my experience unless you ask for it you don't get.
