Stage 1

Stage 1 Kidney Disease

During stages 1 and 2, individuals rarely show physical symptoms. Therefore, many people with CKD in stages 1 and 2 go undiagnosed. During stage 1, you will have an eGFR of 90 or greater.

A eGFR of 90 indicates that your kidneys are working well, but there are minor signs of kidney damage. You can slow down the progression of the disease by eating a healthy diet or working to stay active.
