“Test results?”
I had blood tests done to check on my overall health. I noticed this test result (efrg) and was wondering if it is normal? Or should I follow up?

Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) greater than 60 or higher is the normal range. GRR lower than 60 may mean kidney disease. GFR 15 or lower may mean kidney failure. There are urine tests, Dipstick urine test, Urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) which compares albumin to creatinine in your urine. Blood tests, Serum creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), Blood Urea Nitrogen, Blood test, Imaging, and others. BUN/Creatinine ratio is usually between 10:1 to 20:1, and its depend on hydration, protein consumption and multiple other factors. Even tough your creatinine leve is normal, a great natural way to reduce your creatinine level is to by reducing you protein intake. Eating fiber-rich foods. Also fruits with high content ox antioxidants like cranberries, kiwi, applet, and blueberries. Thank you.
All laboratory/imaging results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, your eGFR is lower than ideal. Wish you good health!
Hey Dear, this eGFR of 81 is in the normal range. Just based on this number, there is no need to follow up. But if you have some concerns about your kidney function in general, it is not a bad idea to talk to your primary care physician.
Hello, ALT-liver function test normal. Alkaline phosphates are tested for biliary duct pressure and on elevated. This prompts investigation of bile ducts, first of all, gallbladder ultrasound for gallstones. The third test BUN to creatinine ratio is a normal test for kidney function. Talk to your doctor.
Your estimated glomerular filtration rate is >60 which is normal for kidney function. Hope this helps.
