after effects of kidney transplant
Hi There, I am a 62 years old male, with
CKD
4 , EGFR as 16 and creatinine 4.07 . I have been listed for Kidney Transplant. I need to talk to people who have already got the transplant done and what kind of experience they have after getting the transplant.

Decision making
I am having a hard time justifying doing anything about my Afib since I feel really good most of the time. Even in Afib I'm pretty good except for the worrying and checking of my heart rate every little bit. I have recently backed out of an RF ablation and a Cryo ablation for fear of a poor outcome

I was diagnosed with Paroxysmal after a year of episodes getting longer and longer . I had a cardio version Sept then a very mild Afib that was controlled with Metoprolol in November. I am overdue now according to my tracking since last Nov (every 4-10 weeks) and I finally got my date for ablation

Peginterferon and nightmares
Just wondering if anyone has experienced nightmares whilst take peginterferon alpha 2a. I have noticed some sleep disturbance and last week, my 8th injection, I was asked to increase dose to 90. My platelets had dropped since starting on 45 from 864 to 706 but still high. After my 2nd 90 dose I am experiencing

Coming off Amiodarone
After developing Afib (thanks to Covid) I was put on amiodarone, bisoprolol and edoxaban. A terrible two to three weeks followed without a wink of sleep getting the amiodarone into my system. I had a cardioversion a few months later (delayed thanks to doctors and nurses strikes). That worked and I felt

native kidneys
I had
CKD
. I received a kidney from my daughter two years ago. Everything AOK ( thank you Lord) I got my transplant at 70 years old. My doctor has scheduled an ultrasound of my native kidneys in June. Just to see how they’re doing. I never had any problems with my native kidneys.

Had appointment with cardiologist- update
We had appointment today with cardiologist which we booked privately. In my previous post I said I’d update on how it went. The cardiologist has decided that he will put a heart rate monitor on mum for a week, and see what’s going on. I explained the current anxiety symptoms were so frequent now, like

New to all this!
Hi. I am new to this and feel overwhelmed by it all. I've just been in A&E and have now added yet another condition to the already long list I have. Due to autoimmune hypothyroidism I have had lots of problems with my health and have struggled with finding the right solutions. Now on more Bisoporol

Post Cardioversion
In my previous post I explained that my 3rd carioversion did not work even after one hour I was back into afib. However something strange is happening or at least it seems strange to me but may be normal. Five days after my cardio I got up around 2:30-3:00 am to use the loo. I could feel my heart in

do I need my inhaler ?
hi all, I’m new to this forum and new to my illness which I haven’t really been informed of in much detail. I had a collapsed lung in September last year and they did a cat scan 3 weeks later. The results letter that they sent my doctor was also sent to me. I’ve gathered that I have emphysema and bronchial

New to dialysis; CKD caused by lithium
I started dialysis last August after my kidneys dropped into the Stage 5 range (functioning at less than 10% of normal). I'm 59. Because I'm single and was living by myself, I had few good options but to move into a long-term rehab facility in a nearby suburb that has an on-site hemodialysis clinic.

One litre of fluids
After having pneumonia with fluid on the lung I have now developed heart failure.My recent x-ray was showing I still have fluid on my lung. I don't have any shortness of breath at the moment. I was surprised to hear this. Apparently it's worse than it was. A consultant from the hospital rang me to ask

seeking more info with yet more questions
Hello. As I begin to write this it's 5:45 in the morning here. Trying to get at least some type of sleep. Still having loads of anxiety but trying to calm myself down to at least write this. Glancing over once in a while to check oxymeter, heart rate ranging from 92 to 104, oxygen steady at 96-97.

Hello
Introducing myself, as I'll be looking through posts in the coming weeks... I'm 61, recently diagnosed with AF, but reckon I've been suffering for about 2 years. Biosprolol, Apixaban and Digoxin. Due to do the 'zaps' in 8-12 weeks.

donepezil and CBD
Good morning! My husband is in the late stages of CBD, which for those of you who don’t know, is a close relation to PSP. He is totally bed/wheelchair bound and has very limited speech. He has been choking on everything and nothing. I read on this site about Donepezil helping with that. He started taking

add THC tincture to CBD Salve
Several drops of THC sold as under the tongue tincture mixed thoroughly with Topical CBD salves seems to activate the CBD. Rubbing small amounts of the mix on affected areas joints, limb muscles etc works quickly to reduce pain and inflammation. I never measured the levels of these and so I do not
