kidney function and ascites.
Hi, my partner was recently turned down for transplant, as considered too high risk due to other health issues. He has been having drains every 2-3 weeks usually 7-8 litres each time. His kidney function has recently worsened, this week, 3 weeks since last drain there was not enough fluid to drain.

Seek Urologist in TX that does the Transperineal biopsy of prostate
I am scheduled for a TRUS prostate biopsy on Aug. 24 in Fort Worth, TX. Not my choice since the TX Center for Urology in Fort Worth only uses the TRUS method. There has to be a urologist in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that can do the Transperineal biopsy. Any suggestions? Thank you.

hi all, I haven’t been on here in a bit. I’ve been trying to catastrophize less by limiting my exposure to PC stuff. Anyway…My dad met with a radiologist over a week ago and they are in support of him getting this type of radiation therapy, “Fiducial Marker and Rectal Spacer Placement”. It sounded

bacterial pneumonia
It turns out that my lower WBC was the least of my worries. I was hospitalized for bacterial pneumonia. I understand it’s going to take a while to get back on my feet. I have been blessed to not have been sick since my diagnosis in 2016.

Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter placement side effect - Can't pee!
So I posted that I had my PD Catheter placement surgery yesterday morning and I felt pretty good all day. Didn't even have to take the pain med I was given. Then last night about 5:30pm, I noticed an uncomfortable feeling and a bit of pain in my bladder area. I tried to pee and even though I felt like

Kidney stones from drinking too little water… and other well-meant mistakes.
I have surgery next week to remove a big kidney stone. We had to delay because I had a serious UTI that needed to be taken care of first. They placed a stent (a coil that holds the stone and that expands to make space) around the stone to allow liquid to go around the stone until they can laser and remove

Please have blood tests if taking medication - Pentasa.
My GP prescribed me Pentasa for my Ulcerative Colitis. I took this for approx 10 years. My GP never requested any blood tests in this time. This medication was slowly killing off my kidney function. In 2017 I was admitted to hospital with a 9% kidney function. I stopped Pentasa and my kidneys improved
