When my kidneys were failing I was told they generally start thinking about or start dialysis in the teens. The doctors said you can live OK in the 30's but you won't feel very good. At around 50 % you can feel OK most of the the time but will probably have limited endurance and fatigue quickly.
My kidneys did slowly improve so I never ended up on dialysis and it took a couple years to get back up to 40-50%.
