    GFR is just an estimated number, and it generally fluctuates with a certain range, so this isn't surprising.  Still, always good to get a higher GFR so here's to hoping for more / better results!

    Great news Davey.  Mine has never shown an upward trend, instead a couple of different blood pressure medications have actually reduced it!  Luckily, it did regain most of the points lost after stopping the medication but not all of them.
