GFR Results
Does anyone know if dropping 5 GFR points in a 6 week period is not good?

Re: GFR Results
It depends on the numbers. If it is still in the normal range, then it's not a big deal because the percentage drop is small. If your gfr is already quite low, then the drop may be significant.

What were the numbers?
