Hello,
I have gone through your query and understand your concerns.
Based upon the values you have mentioned your grandmum is in stage 5 kidney disease and her GFR IS 14. If she is having symptoms then she needs dialysis at this stage but if she have no symptoms then management with medicines is needed.
Please check calcium,phosphorus, PTH and renal function test monthly and take treatment accordingly.
Regards,
Dr.Alekhya.
