This is a recycled response from a similar post earlier. Hope this helps.
"CKD, to be diagnosed properly, is a handful of tests over a period of time. It is not one type of test in a single snashot or time. The results are baseline on current condition (also tests over a period of time). Your Nephrologist is the expert and is the best resource at your present stage.
Incomplete information or data leads to improper diagnosis and is dangerous."
So, wait for the complete assessment before jumping to conclusions.
Good luck, take care and be well.
