    Well if there's a lot involved surely the bodies are piling high from the effects of it.....I'm sure mainstream would report on the numbers if they cared don't you think.

    Seems more a yank thing than here though........I'm good with my cannabis medication myself

    Right, just gone to google and searched the question we've been discussing...

    There may also be a chance of having high blood pressure later in life. However, the loss in kidney function is usually very mild, and life span is normal. Most people with one kidney live healthy, normal lives with few problems. In other words, one healthy kidney can work as well as two.14 Apr 2020.

    Ffs, no wonder people go around scared in life.

    Don’t want the sympathy card, having one functioning kidney isn’t renal failure(being pedantic)

    renal failure is having zero kidney function. One kidney isn’t renal failure. So I accept your alternative posted, but don’t agree.

    You do indeed!

    I may or may not have told this story before but i'll keep it brief anyway.

    I used to take a drug called diclofenac. It was for osteoarthritis in my big toe, following a bout of gout. This stuff worked. Really worked, I had it on repeat prescription and it got rid of knee pain and foot pain and ankle pain at will. I felt no pain and could play whatever, whenever.

    Anyway, I started having stomach trouble. **** knows what that was, but put up with it for a while but then went to get this looker at. Was diagnosed with UC, which let me tell you is ****ing horrific and comes in bouts, or 'flares'.

    This calmed down, then I'd have another, then it went and then I had another other, which lasted well over a year. I had various treatments for that (including immunosuppressants, which is why I'm top of the vaccine list!!) before I eventually put the two together. Tracing back, each 'flare' followed some heavy diclofenac use.

    I was also warmed, seriously, by a visiting locum that the **** causes early age cardiac arrest in males.

    I've not touched it for years and haven't had a bout of UC in over five years now.

    Still get immuno treatment every eight weeks though. And, considering it suppresses the immune system, I also never get ill with anything else!!






    ^^^jinx no doubt.

    So now you are being pedantic, I was perfectly clear in what I wrote, even if the medical term I used was incorrect. I don't care if you agree or not, but I will continue to challenge your false narratives when I see them. Which is I will drop the use of 'renal failure' and merely state someone with one kidney can live a perfectly normal life, with no change in diet than that of a person with two kidneys. Now there maybe exceptions to this, but it is quite clear that I am talking about a category of people, that can live happily in life with one kidney, and no one would ever know they have one kidney. Btw thanks for your concern but my family is not going through anything.

    Hasn't that drug been linked to Stoke and heart attacks too ?

    I think even Ibruprofen has an increased risk of stroke, but that Diclofenac stuff bumps up the stats quite considerably.

    Yup, I think a lot of people miss the connection with the drugs they take sometimes, due to the period of time that can elapse for the symptoms to creep up on you, but yes, you've explained it perfectly.

    Yep, the single kidney seems to realise it’s on its Tod and adjusts accordingly, the body is an incredible machine.

    Yeah, they start at 50% capacity and over time can ramp up, allowing for wear and tear. That's why my donor kidney is blasting away at 81% and my donor slightly higher at 90%

    Are the same people who are reading some grifter on the net saying a horse wormer is the cure all & then popping down their local pet store ffs <laugh>

    Yeah, it's ****ing grim.

    A Facebook 'memory' popped up the other day from a decade ago.

    My head looked like a ****ing melon. That's steroids for you!
