Father having a first episode of HE
My father had drained 8 ltr ascites on 8th. He felt good and his liver plus kidney function reports were within mid normal range and improved in comparison to previous reports. However due to drain his albumin came little less than required level. After couple of days he had constipation and couldn’t

Abundance?
Cats who are given food full of corn and soy and rice become obese, and they develop diabetes and
kidney
failure
; cats are obligate carnivores, so their energy-regulation systems fail under those circumstances. My chickens also have food in abundance.

Always need to urinate
I am 16 months post kidney transplant. I always have the need to urinate and this is affecting my life in many ways. I cannot hold my urine there is too much pain and there is always this urge to go. Sometimes I even have to go every 30 minutes. I got tested for urine infection and it was negative

Ckd and ammonia smell
I’ve already turned down using dialysis when
kidney
failure
starts because that to me isn’t the quality of life that I would enjoy. So unless a breakthrough happens to cure it I just have to prepare for the day when my body will finally have had to much to keep going.

I'm new here, Oxygen when going out and about
I have just been discharged from hospital and my long term oxygen has been increased to 8 LPM when resting and as needed from 10 to 15 LPM when doing any movement. I can no longer have a conserver on my oxygen when moving with my ambulatory cylinder in a carry bag, so oxygen only lasts 45 mins. Is anyone

Very Informative Podcast
https://m.soundcloud.com/prostate-oncology/off-label-treatment-used-for-prostate-cancer This podcast was done by Mark Scholz (my oncologist from Prostate Oncology Specialists). Very worthwhile information. He discusses off label uses. Some here oppose that but Scholz was using Taxotere long before

Immune response to Sars-Cov-2 following organ transplantation.
Even patients with suppressed immune systems can achieve a strong immune response to Sars-Cov-2. A test helps to adapt therapy following an infection. A research team from the University Hospital at Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) has developed a test that provides information on the immune response

Severe Sweating After My Kidney Transplant 3 Years Ago.
Oct 31 will be my 3-year kidney anniversary. I take 4mg of Envarsus (Tacro) and 5mg of Prednisone daily.
