I am a 30 year old male with no history kidney disease in family. My only problem is that I dont drink enough water, mainly sodas and juices.
Recently I was looking over test and I seen that my GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE is 79-NB. I googled it and found out that this falls in STAGE 1 kidney disease. I called doc and she said it's neither good or bad and to drink more water and decrease caffeine.
I want to go to ER or urgent care, since it takes months to see my doc sometimes due to scheduling. Should I be concerned about my kidneys.
Also what is prognosis for somoene who is 30 with stage 1 kidney disease?
