Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A GFR of 19 mL/min/1.73 m2 indicates severe kidney dysfunction or failure. The kidneys are not able to effectively filter waste and excess fluid from the body, leading to a build-up of toxins and fluid in the bloodstream. Fatigue and weakness are common symptoms due to the build-up of waste products in the body. Edema, or swelling, can occur due to fluid retention. Headaches may also occur due to the build-up of toxins. While some patients may not have specific symptoms, it is likely that they are experiencing some degree of fatigue or weakness.
