[QUOTE="nakedjoe99, post: 211729, member: 40516"] Me eGFR has been as low as in the 30s and as high as in the eighties. It all depends on what my creatinine is at the time. I train very intensely 6 days a week and and do 1.5 - 2 hours of cardio 7 days a week. If I get bloodwork done without taking about 5 days off, my creatinine can be as high as 1.7 - 1.8. But if I take time off of training before the bloodwork, it can get down to around 1.0. Its hard for me to not go to the gym and take that time off as training is my livelihood. The anti androgenic effect from the spironolactone is one of the reasons I am prescribed to it as androgens are hard on the kidneys. It also reduces my proteinuria which is the main reason for taking it. The lower doses of the hormones were not as hard on my kidneys and therefore did not contribute as much edema as when I increased the dosage; It was definitely dosage depended. Nonetheless, the edema was always present to some degree until I got my blood pressure under control and started the spironolactone. The edema was a direct cause of the protein I was losing in my urine. [/QUOTE]
