nephrectomy
hi I’m just after a bit of advice I had my right kidney removed 4 weeks ago it was removed robotically and took over 7 hours due to the size of a non cancerous tumour. I had 4 small incisions and one large one lower down which is quite big! My tummy is still very swollen and sore. Is this normal? I

not sure if you remember I was in and out of hospital a few times with undiagnosed bilateral pleural effusions. Well the next stage was to get some biopsy’s done to see if they can find out the cause but in clinic on Thursday I was told a meeting will be held on Tuesday to see if I now qualify for that

I am confused CKD
Some time ago, just over 2 years now I had to go into hospital for just a day with a breathing problem and whilst there I had several blood tests. I was told one of them, the kidney function test was abnormal and I might be referred to see a renal consultant. That actually didn't happen. I have

The second time I had dialysis I was infiltrated severely... and wound up in hospital.. I have had a bilateral Nephrectomy and my kidneys were football

All kidney tests normal EXCEPT albumin/ creatinine ratio
hi. Haven't posted in while. My duff went up from 40 to 70!! But now test just came back that my albumin/creatinine ratio is slightly above normal. Should I be concerned?

Antihistamine
I have stage 4
kidney
failure
and am trying to preserve what is left of my function as I am 82 years old. I live in California. Have tried to reach my nephrologist and regular doctor all without success. It seems like our health care system is falling apart. Would appreciate any suggetions.

Request for Input
Things went bad due to an adverse reaction to Toradol postop that caused acute
kidney
failure
and 11 days in the hospital. At that point many thought he wouldn't make it...my instincts told me to request all records about his stay and it cost me $250.

Contradicting Dietary Advice
So I have a choice of managing the heart
failure
OR the
kidney
disease. My current thinking is that I prioritise the heart related issues and then wait and see if I am offered dialysis at some point

Hypo type episode while on Forxiga /Dapaglaflozin, waiting for pacemaker upgrade. Any experiences with this drug anyone?
I felt sweaty and shaky after skipping breakfast this morning, and looking at the leaflet for Dapaglaflozin, I see one of the side effects is to cause low blood sugar levels. It's a diabetes drug which has been found to help with Heart Failure patients. It makes you pee away blood sugar. So I ate some

Carnosine as potential initial PCa treatment
Researchers have discovered that a naturally-occurring molecule could potentially be an effective first line of treatment against prostate cancer. Nottingham Trent University (NTU) scientists investigated the anti-cancer properties of carnosine, which can be produced in the body and is also found
