Looking for information
I had my kidney transplant April, 2019. In the last couple of months I have had issues with being so cold that I need a coat or a heating pad. Then after about half an hour, I am so warm it's almost as if I have a horrible sunburn, especially on my back. Is this from the anti-rejection meds?

Dr Nicholas Vogelzang has died
Well known and well respected Dr Vogelzang of Las Vegas died at the age of 72. He’d recently retired and was in hospice care. What a loss for the Prostate Cancer community. RIP and thank you for all you did to help.

protecting against infection
Since I had my kidney transplant 2 years ago during Covid and I’m over 70 years old,I have had to be particularly careful about getting infections. Now that Covid is subsiding and people are going back to normal, I’m not sure how careful I need to continue to be. Before transplant, I had a robust immune

Evusheld not foolproof...be cautious still
I contracted Covid a few days ago after getting Evusheld twice... the last 300mg just about 2 weeks ago. I think one should not get complacent with Evusheld. It is not foolproof obviously and lessens severity I assume but does not prevent infection. I got Pavloxid which I suppose (lower dose because

Transplant Journey outcomes/advice anyone?
Hi, I have had CKD for several years and declined dramatically over the last 6mths -1yr and was actually started urgently on dialysis in July when my GFR dropped to 3 and creatine was 12.43. I had already had a consult and was added to a wait list for kidney transplant in early February of this year.
