Bun and creatinine checked 3x over course of 1 year. high all times. egfr always in the 50s. age 36. perfect blood pressure and all other labs. why?

Consider workup: The history you give is remarkable for its medical literacy and you are to be commended. With normal urinalysis and other labs, the chance of finding treatable renal disease on workup is very low. Maybe you were born with just one kidney -- no big deal. Take care of yourself and consider ultrasound / pyelogram if you're really curious.
