Hello normally one kidney is sufficient to take care of normal functions if there is not any underlying factor to affect kidney functions...you should get her test named Rats once in a year i.e. at least once every year and you don't need to think about kidney transplant in near future as I told u 1 healthy kidney is sufficient
