Nephrectomy kidney cancer and Gout
kidney cancer being treated with Nephrectomy July 2023 he has developed gout recently and has never enjoyed alcohol. Trying to eat no high purine foods but internet suggestions is conflicting. Does anyone know whether this will go after Nephrectomy. uric acid obviously cannot filter through that kidney

recent kidney transplant
June 27, 2023 Just 10 weeks ago I had a living kidney donor transplant. Looking for advice as far as lab values when they’re not normal or things that sound concerning such as a rise in antibody numbers. I wondered how they treated that and how difficult it was to get things stabilized. I appreciate

Spousal support during dialysis
Going through
kidney
failure
and dialysis is a lot. However when there are other underlining issues that make your journey so hard to bare, it’s difficult to go on. I have been made to feel like a burden, feel unloved, unimportant, worthless.

Seeking advice re: end-of-life planning with family
Hello everyone – I am a 70-yr-old retired health care professional and writer; my EGFR has been in the low teens since 2019, and I have most of the challenges you would expect. As time goes by my renal status continues to deteriorate, and I’m not functioning as well as I used to in any area of my life

Postive ANA?
Hi, I recently had a postive ANA result (1:160 speckled) alongside elevated CRP. Few years ago had tests that my GP said were indicative of lupus (abnormal urine sample, elevated serum creatine and elevated lupus anti coag) he said if I felt okay to just leave it there… Since 2020 I have felt gradually

Starting Home Dialysis-Advice?
I received a kidney transplant in 2014 and now I need another one. I had never been on dialysis before but now I have to go on. I have elected to do dialysis at home. I'm nervous about every part of it from doing it correctly to the amount of space I will need to store materials to whether or not I will

Switching to home hemodialysis
I have been on peritoneal dialysis using a cycler, which has been wonderful, for two years. Unfortunately my clearance has been falling over the last four months and treatment increase in the amount of dextrose has caused me to gain nearly 30 lb. My clinic has me scheduled to begin training for home

My husband received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor last month. He is doing well. Hopefully it will continue that way.

Looking for a Surgeon with Specific Skills
This is a long shot. I’m an Aussie. I had HD brachytherapy for prostate cancer in 2010. In 2016, I was diagnosed with Carcinoma in Situ in the bladder. I’ve had multiple rounds of BCG, and I’m now heading towards a radical cystectomy. My urologist is nervous about the risk of damage to the rectum

Pentamidine?
I am on V + O treatment. My last Obi infusion is July 3. A month ago I developed a rash on my chest, neck, and face. My oncologist had me stop Bactrim to confirm it was the culprit. The rash cleared within a week. Now he has me scheduled for an oral inhalation of pentamidine. I am concerned about this

Disimpaction photos anyone?
Has anyone got a series of photos to show when disimpaction has completed? Does the poo go completely watery as with diarrhoea from a bug? Or does the macrogol thicken it a little? I can't tell if we can stop yet and I don't want her missing school so close to the end of term. Can I stop disimpaction
