I went through all the channels and I am a match!!!! the bad news is he requires a secondary insurance in order to do the surgery.

I have been receiving dialysis due to kidney failure for about 10 weeks. It all happened very quickly. I would be interested to know if anyone else on this forum was on dialysis. Lilian xx

To and From Dialysis: How would you rate your Transportation?
You are invited to complete a transportation survey if you are a dialysis patient who uses either Medicaid or paratransit (transportation for people with disabilities provided by local governments or state funded programs) transportation services as your mode of transportation for your dialysis treatments

My brothers in a coma/vegetative state from an OD and I’m losing my mind.
On June 17th, my brother was found unresponsive in a hotel room, having overdosed after being sober for 10 months. His drug of choice was alcohol but he ended up relapsing..this time turning to hard drugs trying to avoid alcohol and us knowing, and he laid for hours in that room alone with not enough

Treatment going ahead for antibody mediated rejection!!
So lady’s and gents, some may remember my post a few weeks ago about being treated with a form of dialysis for antibody mediated rejection, the docs decided to send me home and watch how I go with my tacrolimus levels being high, this has caused a bit of damage to my kidneys and my bloods are much worse

Kidney disease and RSL
Lately I’ve been experiencing really bad RSL to the point I can miss 2-3 days of sleep. I live in Florida and the medical care outside of Tampa is horrid. There are so many drug addicted abusing the system coupled with the overwhelming amount of older folks that I think the doctors here are just exhausted
