A member asked:
I only have one kidney, crea results 140mmol (norm is 114.9mmol), random protein crea ratio is 0.68 norm is <0.2. is it normal coz i only 1 kidney?

No: when we have one kidney, single kidney takes over the function of both the kidneys. Which means your creatinine should be within normal range and no proteinuria. Do you have other Risk factors like high BP or diabetes? You need to seek assistance from your primary MD and if need be may be a nephrologist too.
