Hello I am a 2x kidney transplant recipient had 1st transplant 6/2013 best friend donated to me.I lost the kidney 1.5 yrs ago due to recurring UTI's that spread to the kidney: I had my 2nd transplant 6/2016 my sister was my donor and I am currently having problems again. I am currently stable but my creatine has been ranging 3's with a gfr 16-20. I have been treated with many medications. I am just happy that my labs r stable, just praying that this kidney can hold off before going back to dialysis.
