How much water is best each day with ckd 3? And how much is too much? My nephrologists vary in what they advise.I'd be grateful for knowledgeable advice please.

We cannot tell you how much water to drink. We do not know your medical history and we are not doctors. Take the advice of what the nephrologists are saying and try to see what amount works for you.

Thankyou. They say different things and I read on here that too much water can give a false eGFR reading. Sorry, anyway.

I agree medical history plays a part. I do what my neurologist tells me.
