Transplant birthday/Mental Health Awareness Week/Lung Transplant Consultation
Today marks 15 years since my bone marrow transplant for leukaemia. Crazy to think so many years have gone by and a definite cause for celebration tonight with my Dad and wife - we're going for a curry. Been a lot of up and downs along the way not least the development of my PPFE which as you many of

Nerve Pain
Did anyone have nerve pain after their transplant. I am 6 weeks post kidney transplant and I am having a lot of nerve pain below my surgery site. The area gets num and produces a shocking pain. This pain gets worse when I put my pants on and the belt pushes against my stomach. The doctor said they

Cancer worries post and pre transplant
A quick recap on my situation. I had liver transplants back in 1995 and have been on immunosuppressants ever since (mychophenolate). I’ve been back on the transplant list now for 15 months due to having cirrhosis. About 2 weeks ago I went for mammogram and yesterday I received a letter saying I needed

A preemptive kidney transplant?
Hey everyone I have IGAN. Approximately 3 months ago I started the process of getting on the kidney transplant list. At the time I was referred for transplant by my nephrologist because my GFR was 16 and we both thought dialysis was looming. I started the process and went through all the testing required

I'm new, hello
Hi, I'm Oldred, 'cos I am an old Man Utd fan. I had a liver transplant in December 2018 and slowly recovering. Everything is going well, though I am suffering quite a lot of discomfort. I am told this is normal but I had hoped to have been better than this nearly 6 months down the line. What experiences

Prisoner needing liver transplant wasn't taken for hospital appointment, then deteriorated and died
I mentioned just the other day that my last position of employment before taking retirement was that at Cardiff Prison. Most prisons around the country are visited by local hospital's Liver specialist nurses. Who deal with liver related medical conditions, and are often involved with liver-related alcohol

Liver transplant Assessment – Alcohol-related Liver Disease.
I’ve been thinking about writing about this for some time, so here goes. As anyone who has been there before will tell you, the liver transplant assessment can be not only a life changing/saving opportunity, but also very anxious time for not only the hopeful recipient but also for the carer too. This

Hi everyone. I haven’t been on here for quite a while. I first joined this group 3 years ago when I was listed for my transplant. The forum provides so much support and love to people who understand what people are going through and been through which is what it’s all about. I had my liver transplant

Recently went to outpatient center for depression and anxiety due to chronic pain. Now have additional pain and depression is severe again🙁
I’m not sure how to even explain the depth of my depression. My path down this dark whole began about July 2015 when my Dad had quadruple bypass. Then soon after I got my first diagnosis of HPV. By December I started having severe bleeding in my urine and had emergency surgery. Was diagnosed with rare

Stem Cell research or is it now Frankenstein reborn
Time to move on from my last post. Those who have been interested in my previous post into Stem Cell research will be astounded by this latest revelation. In my last post on this subject I mentioned how it was hoped that liver transplants may one day become a thing of the past, and that with future stem

Goodbye "snoutie"
It is a shame that within our society, there are those who sadly carry a personal bitterness towards others. I, like so many others joined this site so I could hopefully reach out and offer help, support and advice to others by calling upon my own personal experience, medical knowledge, and life age

Bone Marrow Transplant Aftermath
The experimental bone marrow transplant for prostate cancer had no positive effects for me, as far as we can determine, but I keep getting new chronic side effects, which are likely explained by the bone marrow transplant. First it was loss of the ability for my body to regulate my temperature effectively

Post transplant 5 mos no energy
I am the only careprovider of my husband who received a kidney transplant over 5 months ago. First 2 months were great, and then problems arose and all is fine now except for low hemoglobin. I give him "Procrit" 3X a week by injection (he shakes so badly is reason for he gives 4X a day insulin shots
