Couple things I would check.
Is there any fluid/pressure at the brake hose connection to the caliper? Is there any fluid/pressure at the brake hose connection and the brake line connection? Is there any fluid/pressure coming out of the Master cylinder secondary port. This would be the brake line that connect to the front of the master cylinder. It is possible that you have a secondary piston issue in the master cylinder.

Could be a stopped up bleeder. Take the bleeder out of the caliper on the left side and see if the fluid will come out with bleeder out if it will take a piece of wire and unstop the bleeder and put it back in. Then re bleed both sides.
