Renal failure: Your mother's GFR indicates renal disease and it is imperative that you discuss these result with your doctor. It would be prudent to consult a nephrologist to ascertain if further impairment can be prevented.

On a lab test result, is the gfr number my result for chronic kidney disease? I hope that makes sense, not sure how to word it. My result was 88. Does that mean my kidneys are functioning normal?
