Go see a nephrologist if you’re concerned, OP.

Next blood work don't lift any weights for 4 days before the blood work. Drink a lot of water the day before and day of the blood work. Abstain from eating meat or go vegan for two days before your blood work.

You will see significant point gains.

Lifting weights, dehydration, and eating animal protein the morning of blood work or day or two before blood work will lower your EGFR.

Why would I do this? It's not an exam I am trying to "pass." I want accurate information on my health, not temporarily manipulated numbers.

Np here. The pp was not suggesting how to “cheat” on your test. It’s a fact that people with high muscle mass, dehydrated, taking protein supplements, extreme diets will get unrealistic results.

I would definitely be worried. You should go and see a nephrologist.

Or maybe not unrealistic if these crazy diets are in fact killing your kidneys.
