Is this something I should follow up?
For the last 5/6 years my GFR has been slightly dropping. About 7 years ago it dropped from over 90 to 80 and then stayed between 70 and 80 for the last 5 years. Recently it dropped to 60 and then tested 2 weeks later it bounced up to over 90 where it has NOT been for years. Also I have had low levels

I also shaved recently for the first time 5 days ago. It does not hurt or itch. It is slightly red. I would post

Fenbendazole
I am new, but have been following the posts for a while. I have noticed a lot of questions about whether or not Fenbendazole gets results or not. Most people can't say for sure, because of complications with other treatmentsgoing on at the same time. I have been taking it for 12 weeks now and had a PSA

How many liters of water do you drink??
Hello. How much water does everyone else drink for their kidney transplant? For a first few years, I used to drink 4liters or 16 cups of water. One time, I drank around 24 cups of water and I couldn't breathe. Horrible experience. Since then, I toned down alot to around 1-2 liters of water. I think I

Inconsistent and Confusing Advice about Isolation, Social Distance and Shielding and WHY this is REALLY IMPORTANT.
This post began life as a response to another user's post. It got a bit long, so I am posting it in its own right. I would love to hear people's responses and experience of this. I interpreted the recent rheumatology advice in the same way (see the other post here: https://healthunlocked.com/lupusuk/

Hair loss after kidney transplant
I am 65 years old and received a kidney transplant from my husband in September 2019 and all went well. However in the past couple of months I have noticed significant hair loss. I had really thick hair which is rapidly thinning. I believe this could be caused by one of the many drugs. Any suggestions

Stay positive and notice your patterns
Hi All, I am 5 months post 2nd kidney transplant. Being in London and under the care of an excellent hospital, it is absolutely necessary to be getting bloods done in such an early stage. I am at least fortnightly presently and needed to go back today after just one week as having a recent biopsy due

Persistent extreme fatigue months after surgery
Hi all, I have posted a few times about this already but thought I’d try again in case someone believes they know the cause.

High heart rate
Does anyone else here deal with a pulse of over 100 resting? My endocrinologist was concerned and sent me to a cardiologist. The cardiologist said he believes it is because of autonomic neuropathy. He said that if all nerves are cut to the heart it will beat at 120/min. That when they do a transplant

Is Nepro High Protein safe to take for a 76 year-old that recently started dialysis?
My dad just started dialysis. Is Nepro High Protein a safe and good supplement to take? How about Low Protein? Our city went on lockdown and we can't even contact our nephrologist. He was also treated for gout and contracted pneumonia a few days after leaving the hospital, so got hospitalized again for

Acyclovir and kidney transplant
A few weeks ago I had shingles. I was put on acyclovir 800mg 5x a day. Then, from different doctors, they kept telling me that's a high dose for a kidney transplant patient as it can damage it.
