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

Why can't I be happy?!
I feel I need to apologise about my post before I even start, as I'm sure it will sound silly and ridiculous. My husband had a stem cell transplant in January after being diagnosed with all last year. His counts are all good so far, he feels well in himself. I've recently had to return to work, so back

Face masks - recommendations?
My husband is still recovering from a stem cell transplant earlier this year and will need to shield until end of July. I have to go back to work next week. I work in a supermarket and although they say they have social distancing measures in place, they are not always followed. I want to invest in some

Transplant preparation
After years of icu visits regularly and life support the transplant team have ramped up the testing to prepare for a full liver transplant. An emotional journey for sure. Trying to be hopeful but nervous too

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?

An update on my tocilizumab experience.
Hello Everyone, from Downunder, I have now had my 12th jab of tocilizumab and my inflammatory markers have reduced to “normal” levels. I feel strong, full of energy and mentally positive for the first time in some months. My pred is down to 6.5mgs, Rheumatologist thinks I could reduce more rapidly,

Just when it's now safe to go out, a note of caution.
