Stable is good. I have been on a Egfr of 14 now for over 6 months and feeling and doing ok. Keeping away from Dialysis. As long as your doing as much of the things as possible to protect your kidney function and the doctors are keeping an eye on you that's all you can do. Brian

Creatinine is a bit high. Would explain a drop in efgr.

Nice! Creatinine data is very important. Dialysis is considered when creatinine trends upwards to 5.
