Yesterday I went to the hospital with my 63 year old mother, who was receiving her results from a recent CT scan and we discovered that she had been born with one kidney (the scan was unrelated to ker kidneys). Apparently the other kidney has grown larger to compensate over the years. She has lived a full and active life without knowing this (she eats and drinks what she wants, used to smoke, had 4 children, worked until retirement, had surgery), and suffered no ill effects at all.
I hope that this helps,
