Army-Navy Guy's post in Secondary conditions was marked as the answer
I lost also my right kidney to service connected cancer. The meds i take (PPI’s aka Proton-pump inhibitors), as well as over the counter meds, are directly connected to kidney issues. I also now have “chronic kidney disease” of my solitary left kidney. Having one kidney isn’t good for this. I have been collecting all my medical data from 2002, and will present it to my urologist for a Nexus and submit to the VA, secondary as “solitary” kidney, chronic kidney disease, as a result of losing the right one. Currently, the L kidney it is 75% efficient. That’s actually pretty good for a “one pumper”.
