Severe itching after kidney transplant
I had my transplant last month and I had two blood transfusions. One bag the first time then two bags the second time. I’m not sure if it’s the medications but I have had full body itching since I left the hospital. My doctors tried benedryl, Zyrtec, hydroxyzine pamoat and I have put anything from cortisone

Kidney transplants and meloxicam
My husband is 18 years post kidney transplant. Due to severe pain in “private” areas we went to the ER last night where they prescribed meloxicam. Does anyone have any knowledge on whether a kidney transplant patient can take meloxicam?

Just when it's now safe to go out, a note of caution.
All those who have received a liver transplant (like myself) or who have a suppressed immune system will know how important skin protection is at this time of year. It can feel like we are having to doubly protect ourselves. Having got through the self-isolation due to the pandemic. We can finally go
