New here
Hi everyone. I’m new here. 32 weeks pregnant and experiencing severe urethral pain for over a month. Doctors think the baby is on the nerves supplying the urethra. Cystoscopy was clear, no uti. Has anyone ever had this experience? Constant urge to pee and lightning bolts every few minutes shooting down

Timing of Gabapentin dose
I was seen yesterday at by Dr Tarpara at Vanderbilt’s QCC for RLS. Officially confirmed augmentation from ropinirole usage. The RLS controls my life 7 days a week. Symptoms start as early as 1-2 pm. Afternoons are something I just try to get through until bedtime. I take ropinirole 2 mg per day total

overdose
I was diagnosed Feb 1 2024. Is it possible to overdose on Co-Beneldopa 200 MG. I take three doses a day [3 x 200 mg]. I try to take them at 8-hour intervals but often screw up, as my memory is so bad. Any side effects of Co-Beneldopa?

Burning pain in thigh
last night I woke with a sharp burning pain in my thigh, it felt like a hot knife. As I went to move my leg it spasms and pain became intense. This lasted for about 20 mins. Even today I still get the odd niggling pain again feeling hot. Does anyone have any ideas ? Thanks

Any experience with pregnancy after kidney transplant?
hi everyone, I had my kidney transplant in April 2022 and have been given the green light by my nephrologist and transplant team that I am able to go ahead with a pregnancy. Having been through a lot medically including a bilateral nephrectomy prior to transplant, I am overwhelmed at the possibility

The Queen is here!
Hi all, it's been a while but I'm still going strong 😁 I didn't look back to see what was up the last time I was here. I am still not on dialysis and I've had my fistula for several months now. It's become so thick and strong. I think it's doing well. I've tried not to worry every day about having to

Failing kidney transplant
Has anyone over 70 had the experience of a long term transplant failing. What treatment were you offered and is it feasible to expect some form of dialysis?

Zicam post kidney transplant
I am a post kidney transplant patient. Does anyone know if Zicam homeopathic is safe to use? I was told a while back that zinc in a multivitamin was fine. But, most of the Zicam products now I’ve come across are homeopathic ingredients, not just zinc. Looking into for cold.

Road blocks
Hi all,I thought I'd update you all. I went into hospital in the 20/02 to have my second last chemo before the BMT. Upon admission, I had a fever. After 4 days of fevers and a rash from head to toe, the doctors elected to postpone the BMT. So now the search is on to find out what drugs didn't agree

Three Times Kidney Transplant Recipient: "Third time's the charm."
In 1995, Lisa Myers noticed a mysterious swelling in her feet and ankles. Little did she know that this symptom would mark the beginning of a challenging journey–one that led to a kidney disease diagnosis, ten years on dialysis, and two failed kidney transplants. This is her story as a three-time kidney
