    No other condition that I am aware of. My primary doctor suggested it based on my egfr numbers. My primary doctor said I had stage 3 kidney disease. My Nephrologist told me my primary doctor don’t know what they were talking about. My Nephrologist did their our series of tests on me, 24 hour urine sample, etc. All my tests came back fine. I have really good insurance. I don’t need a referral to see a specialist. I got in within 4 weeks of my appointment.

    Did your primary doctor go to medical school? No PCP practicing in America is going to call an egfr of 78 stage 3.

    Exactly. Most docs will congratulate you.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
