Blood test tomorrow

Hi all, my husband is 33 with CKD stage 3b with IGA nephropathy. He also has cysts on his kidney. As we near another blood test tomorrow my heart starts to fill with anxiety. His gfr 6 months ago was 42 so to see where is is tomorrow is scaring me. I want to be supportive for him I am scared this number will drop and what I’ll do if it comes up bad. I have intrusive thoughts of diyalsis and transplant. I’m scared I don’t know what to think. His last visit his gfr went from 38 to 42 which is good but then my mind takes me to what if it goes down? Any good thoughts would help. His appointment is on July 3.
