I am one month out from my liver transplant, and am still in horrible pain, have lost 40 pounds, of which I did not have to loose, still taking OxyContin regularly, can’t sleep, and can’t eat solid foods. Any suggestions? Feeling absolutely miserable, and NO energy.

Start of my Stem Cell Journey 0.3
Well, where do I start. The transplant team wanted to increase my Rux to 10 mgs which has been really good for me. So much energy hardly any symptoms and overall feeling better. The fly in the ointment is my blood levels are dropping red cells were 80 and my platelets were in the 30’s. My Haematologist

F4: cirrhosis
I was recently diagnosed with F4 Cirrhosis and I'm terrified. I found out by reading my medical record. I was first told that I had Autoimmune Hepatitis after my Fibro scan results and that I needed to start treatment with Imuran and prednisone. GI dr said that if treatment didn't work I would be put

Transplant and BKV Realities
I received my kidney transplant 8 1/2 months ago. The surgery went so well and the transplant has been a new lease on life in so many ways. As I have posted here, I have dealt with a near-constant onslaught of infections (C-dif x2, UTI, Sepsis, BKV, CMV), the most recent resulting in 2 weeks spent in

Famous Kidney Transplant People
I am watching Modern Family (rerun and the series is now ended) and remembered that Sarah Hyland, the oldest daughter, Hailey, of Claire and Phil on the show, was transplanted with a kidney when she was younger by a donation from her father. It failed and she got another transplant.I read that she said

How much can one body take?
As if 2 strokes in 15 months plus a double lung transplant isn’t enough I have now been told I suffered a mild ( thank the Lord mild) heart attack recently which I wasn’t aware of. “Possible inferior infarct- age undetermined “ is their medical term for a myocardial arrest. Suppose on a positive note

So I'm trying to find ways to get motivated to exercise. I want to lose weight in preparation for a transplant. I have no donor yet, but I was told I would gain weight from steroids taken after your transplant. Can anyone give more insight on that? I at least want to try. I'm on my second week of clean

6 weeks post lung transplant.
Home now and what a relief. 22 days in ICU resulting in muscle waste in legs so starting all over again with stairs etc. Wound pain 8/10 especially when bending or reaching out. 30% loss of vision due to minor stroke at bottom of brain. The docs seem quite happy with results which is brilliant but

Osteoporosis treatment post transplant
I'm post Kidney Transplant with many problems, and one is Osteoporosis. My Endocrinologist wanted to put me on Reclast and I declined. Now, he wants to put me on Prolia. There seems to be many side effects to this also. I was on Fosomax and had many bad abdominal side effects. I'm told these are my

ARTIFICIAL LIVER
Good news , maybe we don’t have to wait for a liver transplant after all. I didn’t realise that machines existed that can carry out the function of the liver, at this stage they are external like kidney dialysis. Would think you have to hooked up permanently as the liver is always working.
