A member asked:

Dr. S. Smiley Thakur answered

Specializes in Nephrology and Dialysis

No: Your "good" kidney has developed histologic (microscopic) changes to enable increased filtration to compensate. You should have your kidney function monitored annually to watch for proteinuria or declining renal function.
