Needing a little short-term assistance while recovering
After 2 weeks hospitalized post transplant, my friend is home after his kidney transplant, and removal of both diseased kidneys. He lives alone. His adult daughter was here from out of state for 3 weeks including his 2 week stay after transplant. I've come down for another week to help him out. My

Liver Transplant
A question, and I know that everyone is different. How long does the pain, tightness and general uncomfortable feelings last after having a transplant? I know I’ve added to my malaise by developing an infection where my gallbladder used to be (removed during the transplant) but the pain is still bad

So....now an infection.
Had blood test tue, phone call from surgeon wed-go back for investigations as ALT elevated on blood results. He mentioned stents, liver rejection and told me not to worry. Pain is still absolutely hellish. So of course couldn’t sleep for worrying, even told my husband I need to go home to Scotland urgently

A little bit of historical nonsense
Alcohol has become so inbred into our culture and I find the history of alcohol within our society rather interesting. It’s also fascinating to see just how times have changed over the years. Especially as more recently, the drinking of alcohol has become less sociable, and more self-indulgent due to

Just miserable...
I am in such pain following this liver transplant. Been home almost a week it’s nearly 3 wks since the operation. No let up in this goddamn awful pain. Plus I can’t sleep not even a wink. And now constipated. Eating dates, guzzling cosmocol , and feeling really really hellish. When does this ease off

ITCH and disillusionment
Hello. I'm in the UK. Waiting on an MRI to diagnose pbc for sure. ITCH is the worse thing. I dont know how people cope. Nothing helps. I'm 60 so relatively old, worry its the end for me as if I need a liver transplant I won't have it, as it would be too much at my age. I have a partner who is not supportive

Does anyone know anything about the use of deflazacort instead of prednisone for PMR?
Searching the web tonight for prednisone information, I came across deflazacort for the first time. It seems to have better characteristics in terms of less bone loss and other side effects. The article I found (link below) talks about kidney transplantation; does anyone know whether it is being used

Can kidney transplant patients be architects?
I am an architecture student possibly having a living donor kidney soon (stable on HD) I was wondering, does the tac tremor mean that architecture would be unrealistic? Are there any architects on here? Thanks.

Post op Liver transplant.
Hi I'm 3 years post liver transplant and taking immuno-suppressants/anti-reflection drugs. As my immunity is very low I do not yet know if any of the Covid-19 vaccines will protect me by stimulating my body to produce antibodies to fight the virus. I'd be very keen to hear if anyone has any information

Has anyone had more than one FISH test?
I’ve been on IB for two years and 17p deleted and was wondering if the genetic mutations could change? I asked my oncologist and he said if I did the stem cell transplant he would request it but have any of you had a second test?

Finding a Personalized Approach To Treating Chronic Rejection After Lung Transplantation.
Two new papers examine the processes of lung scarring and chronic rejection of the organ after transplantation, and potential therapies to stop the graft, or transplanted organ and its tissue, from failing. “Chronic graft failure due to progressive scarring is the number one worry of all transplant

Tacrolimus, Covid-19
I have for some time been concerned (like a lot of people) how any covid-19 vaccine would work with Tacrolimus, my concerns where that any vaccine might inhibit the tacrolimus and thus making us more venerable to organ rejection. There just didn’t seem to be any science available to change my point of

Bladder neck constriction
I was having trouble urinating, a little twinge of pain like when you’re driving long time then really gotta go! Doc gave me antibiotics for possible UTI, didn’t help. Then he did Swab to identify what if any bacteria was there it came back negative. Ultrasound and another dye injection test showed
