Joe is still abed in the hospital, although they have let him get up briefly. (I would have thought movement would help) Partner from onc practice stopped by to say he would get two more doses of chemo (his primary ordered 10, not 6 doses). This onc said that, since Joe developed pneumonia while on

Waters broken - 33 + 4 weeks
I’m 33+4 weeks pregnant and my waters broke today at 2am. I am feeling lots of pressure down below and lots of niggly pains - some contractions too but not really that frequent. How long did you go into labour after your waters broke? I do have Polyhydramnios so there is a lot of fluid!!! It’s my second

Pre-term labour
I’ve been in hospital for 8 days now as one of the swab tests came back positive which means it’s likely I’m heading into pre term labour & I also have Polyhydramnios. Last night I started feeling contractions and was in pain.. they were showing as very frequent on the monitor. It was a long night but

edema of the feet
for more than 6 months I am getting edema on the legs. I am taking Throxine 75 mg daily. TSH reading 1.48 - can anyone tell me please whether the edema has got anything to do with my Thyroid issue? THE BLOOD TEST SHOWS MY CREATENINE LEVEL AT 0.75 AND BLOOD UREA AT 9.1. COULD BE THE CAUSE OF EDEMA

First time Kidney Transplant
From the information she told me, she has gone through the tests and was told her
kidney
is a good candidate for
donation
. From my understanding, since I am O positive, I need to get it from a donor who is O pos as well.

kidney infection and low eGFR result
Hi all, I am currently trying to recover from a suspected kidney infection (protein in urine but not sent to lab), taking a course of antibiotics. I have had various tests done as well as I have had a pain in my left kidney area for a long while now, I thought it was a muscle strain. All came back normal

QUEENing like a G
Yeah that title is kinda full of Slang and maybe not very Queeny. I don't even know what it all means. I've been gone a minute. I had two classes to finish and a week of an exam that will signify if I am able to move forward or not in my program. So I have left it in God's hands and I'm moving on. I

Post Transplant Issues
I had a kidney transplant on 2/11/21 and at the same time I was diagnosed with Parkinsons. Is there anyone out there who is on both anti-rejection drugs and carbidopa/levodopa. I have been struggling to feel better for 17+ months. I get so agitated and my quality of life just isn’t there.

Kidney Transplant
😊On Friday, I received a call call from my transplant nurse that I was identified for a kidney coming available the next morning. I accepted and my husband drove me to the hospital 2 hours away. Next day I had the 4 - 6 hour surgery and the new kidney began to work right away. I am less than 48
