I had kidney removed in January 2024. In mid 2023 with 2 kidneys my GFR was over 60. Now with one kidney in November 2024 my GFR is 35. I have read, researched and try to do my best when it comes to drinking water and diet. I have come across a talk given by a nephrologist that goes over diet and its effect on your kidneys. The talk is one hour and it is the most informative Information on diet I have seen to date. The information given on how kidneys work was also well done and in easily understood terms. I do not know the policy on linking files to this site. However, if anyone is interested you can send a private message and I will send a link or if I am allowed to place a link someone can let me know. More information is never a bad thing. We are all seeking. Blessings.

I have seen links posted here before.

I am very interested in this link as well. Had 2 tumors off left kidney mid Oct. All metabolic panel items are back up to GOOD. But I'd like to hear pointers from renal dietitian on how to proceed; I've only been given generalizations. I got a miracle last mo w 100% of tumors removed w good margins, and I do not want to mess this up! I've also seen lots of web links shared on Mayo Connect. God bless you in your journey.

@dougr19 Yes, please post the link! When a member is new, there is a moratorium on what they can post for links and such. But you are past that phase, and it looks like so many of us would be interested in seeing this.

Can I ask, why was your kidney removed?
