Hello

Been awhile since I've visited this board.

I am having intermittent chest pains. I have an appt scheduled with the doctor.

I may need an coronary angiogram. My kidneys are GFR 47.

Question : Will they do an angiogram with GFR of 47. I understand the concern is damage from the dye.

Thank you

They will explain the risks and have you sign informed consent if they believe angiogram is what is needed.
