There is something wrong with your kidney function. At you age, GFR of 60% for 3 consecutive years is apparently abnormal and the result in May 2022 of 109% was likely a lab error and the GFR of 59% in June is more accurate. Besides those risks you mentioned, there are many other causes of kidney disease. You should be evaluated by a nephrologist (kidney specialist).
