Third-stage kidney failure is generally not fatal. Over time, it tends to deteriorate. Diabetes, high blood pressure, alcohol, and poor diet can rapidly destroy already weak kidneys. To the maximum possible extent, these factors have to be managed. Eventually, if damage continues, dialysis will be required and can be continued for many years.

This is a long term condition which people can live with for a number of years. The only way you could 'recover' - i.e. be free of this disease, is to have a kidney transplant which may fail and requires taking 'anti-rejection' drugs for the rest of your life. The short answer is yes but only if you're lucky enough to get a transplant!

What can you do if your kidney fails?
People who have kidney failure, which is when 90% or more of the kidneys do not work, must be on dialysis. When kidneys fail the body cant cleanse the body of waste. The persons blood will become toxic and the person will die without dialysis or a kidney transplant. That's just with kidney failure. Of course you can live with only one kidney. Say you only had one kidney, that one kidney would have to be over 50% damaged before a person would possibly need to be on dialysis. To simply answer your question, you could have no problems with a damaged kidney, but failed kidneys will cause death.
