Quality of life on immunosuppressants
The side effects of the immunosuppressants have significantly decreased my quality of life. I felt better in kidney failure before dialysis started than I do now at five months post kidney transplant. I am 49, and I have a healthy diet and I have been pushing myself to get 30-40 minutes of cardiovascular

Left Side Face Pain and Dialysis??
Without much warning, back in May I felt like I couldn't breathe and was dying. I went to the ER, and spent a week in the hospital where I started on dialysis. It has been an unpleasant experience on many days, mostly due to odd side effects. The worst of which is a pain in the left side of my face,

Challenging/appealing Passive euthanasia resulting from patient's own will.
My would-have-been husband got severe covid in mid Feb. Damage was extensive, so they put him under medically induced coma. End of July will be 4 months in that state. He's on ECMO, ventilator and dialysis. I don't have information on exact kind of life support. He's never awakened but he can hear but

Are doctors always right when they say there's no chance of survival or miracles happen?
Do you know anyone, who doctors had left all hopes of surviving but they did? Does being young (29) and extra fit help? He had a severe case of covid and what seems like pneumonia and the infection has reached all major systems with DNR set for 31st August. Sorry, I have no information except he'd been

Getting a bit concerned
I’m feeling slightly fraudulent posting on here as I haven’t been diagnosed with a heart complaint but I wondered if my symptoms/experience resonated with anyone. I had 3 attacks of acute stridor (upper airway blockage) one week in November. I attended hospital for the first two and they were put down

Introduction post
Hello I am 72 years old and I just recently started dialysis for my kidney disease. I am also looking into getting a donor kidney and prior to receiving that I have to lose at least 40 pounds and become much healthier. I am hoping this program will help me in both of those endeavors.

Diet Tips please
My mam has suffered dreadful nausea but her first bout of dialysis in over three weeks, plus anti sickness pills seems to have regained some appetite and she’s kept her few bites of chicken down.

KT/V Test
I recently took Another KT/V and it came back below passing… with that being said I’m set to retake it again next week and if I don’t get a passing number on this next one then they will put me back on Hemodialysis which I feel will be a death sentence because I went to PD because the staff that worked
