Hi, I am diabetic (58 yo) struggling to understand CKD. Recent check up revealed a eGFR of 57. I went out of town so it was a month before they did the recheck for the eGFR and it dropped to 50. My A1C was typically 6.5 but has dropped so I am controlling my sugar, and I don't smoke or have high blood pressure. I have a problem with my leg (high front thigh) being extremely week and painful. It is difficult to lift.
I need to find a better doctor so until that appointment I am looking to understand how my eGFR compares to other pertinent lab work. Can anyone give me some "cliff notes" on this topic?
Can my thigh pain be from CKD?
