Sorry to hear that dude, all the best and wish you a speedy recovery. Do you have a donor on the cards?

Colin Bayne,was a Scottish athlete,competed in the Scotland's strongest man final in 2004 after he had been the recipient of a kidney from his mum 
My cousin was born with one kidney not working at all and the other not 100%, it's only running at 70% or so. He's fine, working as a chef for 12 hours shifts in a hot kitchen and has no health problems. If your one kidney is fine, you'll also be fine.
