Can you body Work on 1 kidney while the other dies?

As Title Really.

Seeing GP on Thursday, As last week been getting Pains in my Kidney (left), Well where the kidney is im 100% its that and not a pulled muscle or anything, i think its dieing as i can feel it moving etc, Is it possiable for it to Die and the other continue working and not notice? Or would i be in more pain?

I dont think its kidney stones. as i have no idea what the symptoms are for that!

You may have a kidney infection.

I think it's rather premature (to put it mildly) to be thinking it's packing up

If you get the all clear, I'm nominating this for Hypochondriac thread of the year.

I doubt your kidney is doing a death throw mate.

lol franken jim you're a legend.

dr frankenjim must of given you a dodgy kidney.

I've got perfect health eat good foods and drinks all my life. Exercise regular alot. I've been having pains on my left side and movement due to the fact taking supplements dont suit me at all soon as I stop taking them after 1 week or so it clears up.

If your taking supplements stop taking them leave it a week or more see if the pain or movement goes on the left side if it does its the supplements I had the same problem but worked out what mine was.

Im now on my very last ever supplement myprotein with no added CRAP in it at all Unflavoured 100% whey the best protein out there and contains nothing else added FREE of fillers, sweeteners, flavourings and thickening agents this Unflavoured if this stuff dont work and it causes anymore pain on the left side or movement all my supplement days will be over simple.

Unflavoured Impact Whey thats the stuff been using last 3 days and will see how it goes this month or week or next week and go from there.

Its more likely to be a kidney stone or infection than it is all out renal failure - if it's your kidney in distress it should feel a bit like lower back pain.

Is your urine clear/ blood free ?
Has the pain woken you up?
Has the pain made you vomit?

If the answers are yes, no and no then I reckon you'll be OK.

If not, prepare for a hideous onslaught of pain and misery

Clear - Some times of late Blood free yes no blood
I think its woken me up few tims , Finding it hard to go sleep some time
no no vomit.

It comes and goes cheer for info sounds liek Gp will give me defo answers

You can survive with one packed in kidney yes.

You been on supplements 4 weeks sounds like the supplements are the problem. Cause I been on mine few weeks and the pain and movement started from then. You want to try staying of them for 1 week and more and see if the pain goes and the movement.

I dont think its the supps Welshy Pete as last time i bulked i was fine.!

I see what Gp says. :) Cheers lads,

cant believe your asking a group of bbers this kind of a queston rather than your GP

its perfectly possible to survive with 1 kidney- although if your kidney really is dieing () then i expect the greater concern would be:

1) why its dieing
2) will the 2nd follow
3) what else is at risk

Any news on the kidney?
