Hi. I am 66 years of age. Recently diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. My eGfr is 43. I am female, and already have several other health issues. What is my life expectancy? I dont drink or smoke but am on a cocktail of drugs for existing conditions.

Hello Amy.⅚⁶,
Thank you for writing to us. I am sorry for the delay in responding to your question.
This site is a place where C3G patients can get general information on the disease. We are not able to address questions that are specific to a single patient. We suggest that you discuss your question with your nephrologist.
It is not possible to know what any patient’s life expectancy is – this goes for C3G, other kidney diseases, or even for any disease at all.
Thank you again for writing.
