What is changing?
Ask about trends in eGFR, creatinine, urine albumin, blood pressure and other results. A trend can be more informative than a single number.

Early understanding matters
Know your kidney numbers.
eGFR estimates kidney filtration and urine albumin testing can reveal kidney damage. Trends over time are often more useful than one isolated result. Ask your healthcare team what your numbers mean for you and how often they should be checked.

Treatment is personal
There is no single kidney-care path for everyone.
Treatment may include blood-pressure and diabetes management, kidney-protective medicines when appropriate, nutrition guidance, dialysis, transplant evaluation, symptom management and emotional support. Decisions should reflect the individual patient’s health, goals and medical team.

Questions worth bringing to your next appointment
Good kidney care often starts with better questions. Write down what matters most to you and ask your care team to explain anything that is unclear.
What can I protect now?
Ask which medicines, nutrition changes, blood-pressure or diabetes goals, and daily habits are most important for protecting the kidney function you still have.
What should I prepare for?
If kidney function is declining, ask early about nephrology follow-up, dialysis education, transplant evaluation, vascular access, home therapies and supportive care options.
