Complications from Immunosuppressants
I am almost 6 months post kidney transplant. I developed a 24 hr fever on July 30, along with headaches and very large painful mouth sores. I could barely eat or talk. My white blood cell count was low but creatinine was normal. The docs tested for everything including CMV, Epstein Barr, and did swabs

Anyone been a carer for liver failure then transplant? Just wondering how long should I expect to continue

Coping with what could have been
My husband has recently been very ill and had a liver transplant which is working wonderfully. I can't stop thinking about what could have happened if he had not had the transplant. He had sepsis in March and almost died and was going downhill fast just before his transplant. I'm driving myself crazy

Tocilizumab & Covid vaccine
I seem to remember that I delayed my Toc jab when I had my Phizer jab. Is that correct? If so, by a day or a week? Getting booster today when I’d normally inject Toc.

3RD COVID VACCINE SHOT TO BE APPROVED WITHIN DAYS
My post on getting a third shot on my own, without approval from the government, has had very wide readership on this site. It should be so, because it is perhaps one of the bigger concerns we all should have right now. Now the good news is that the government here in the US is about to approve a third

Decompensated cirrhosis and kidney failure
Mom (age 72) was diagnosed with decompensated cirrhosis with refractory ascites and HE. Soon after creatinine jumped to 7 and her kidney failed. Afterwards, she was on CAPD + rosavel, rifagut & weekly albumin. Also salt intake. Survived 28 months and left us due to heart attack and infection. Doctor

THIRD SHOT BEING RECOMMENDED BY CDC FOR IMMUNOCOMPROMISED
As a follow up to my post last week about getting a third shot, news stories caught my eye yesterday that I thought I'd pass on. As a precursor to some who missed my first post, I took it on my own to get a third shot without authorization. Now it appears that the government in the US is likely to

Hi everyone, just found this site through the NHS app. Had cancer twice, had chemo plus stem cell transplant. I've been left with knee problems due to Lymphoma and have to use a stroller and wheelchair. The treatment I've had has led to a deep depression and anxiety as I no longer have my independence
