Pets for people with kidney disease
I recently went in for a kidney transplant evaluation and the social worker told me that I am only allowed to have 3 cats (and I am no longer allowed to clean their litter box) and that I need to get rid of my birds now or I can't get the transplant but that even if I didn't need a transplant she said

Curious
Well first off, I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving yesterday! But I have some questions for those of you who had a kidney transplant.. when you got the call to head to the hospital, how did you feel? What kind of stuff did you pack? How long where you in the hospital for? How did you feel afterwards

Transplant Insurance Coverage
Does anyone have a suggestion about who to consult regarding what will be paid by my Humana Advantage Medicare policy for a kidney transplant? I asked my Transplant Center Coordinator and she (curtly) replied that I had to research that information. BTW: For those just recently put on dialysis or anticipating

Bone Marrow Transplant Failed
In early 2017, I took a big bet. I suspended normal cancer treatments, in order to preserve my eligibility for a very novel phase 1 clinical trial. Initially, I didn't qualify, but they agreed to modify the trial to make me eligible. That process took a while, so we didn't get started until late 2017

Love Your Liver - Wrexham

Has anyone had a bone marrow transplant who has PV?
My husband has PV he was diagnosed in 2012. He's had a scan and his spleen has doubled in size. He's had to have a bone marrow biopsy. We have got the biopsy results back today. His bone marrow has a lot of scar fibrosis so he is referring him to the RVI Newcastle for a bone marrow transplant. We were

two kids diagnosed with ALD
I have two son's who have been diagnosed with ALD. One of them is 8 year old and the other is 3 year old. Both don't show any physical symptoms of ALD as such. The only symptom the elder one has is lack of concentration and forgetfulness. Does this mean my elder son is symptomatic? I am not able to conclude

Identify the carrier.
How to diagnose if I am the carrier or my wife is. The doctors just assume that it's my wife. The reason why this is important is because I am getting a bone marrow transplant done for my elder son and I 'll be the donor for him. So trying to verify with all the sources I have as to what I am doing is

RECEDING GUMS DUE TO MEDICATION FROM LUNG TRANSPLANT. HELP?
I am in recovery from a double lung transplant. I am so fortunate to be able to breathe properly again! However all the drugs I am using are ruining my gums, I am 65 so I know teeth and gums do get worse, but is there anything that will prevent this gum deterioration.
