Acute kidney failure - creatinine is climbing
My hubby's treatment is venetoclax and acalabrutinib (he previously had obinutuzumab too). He is also taking sulfameth trimeth (for ammonia) and valacyclivor (for shingles) dropped from 1200 to 800 mg a day. We just saw a Renal Specialist Dr and she said that they really don't know the full extent

What does having a NEW KIDNEY feel like?
Feel like your old self before
kidney
failure
? Can you eat what you like or you have a special diet? All I know is you take a lot more medication to ensure the kidney takes. Do you take these meds for the rest of your new kidney’s life? Can anyone with experience please answer my question?

Kidney

is mentioned amongst other things. I’m wondering if anyone out there has any understanding or experience of this. My PMR is currently settled at 5.5mg of Pred and I aim to start a slow reduction to 5mg at the end of this week.
