A member asked:
The egfr value for my age group (56 years) should be 93 but mine is 77. should this be a cause of concern?

All laboratory 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, you may wish to consult a nephrologist. Wish you good health!
