Information on Prostate Cancer?
I am been tested for Prostate Cancer, I had two schwannomas on my prostate in March 2020, my bladder is VERY irregular, urine a bit unpredictable, I had a Transperineal (TP) Biopsy of Prostate done on 13th June, I fear waiting for that long because of Covid pandemic, does not make my diagnosis feel too

Watch out Covid about…
Following a kidney stone removal ( well 3) i went home and only caught Covid which, bearing in mind this new variant is supposed to be milder has left me with an elephant on my chest. Back in hoppy now and on antiviral and antibiotic drugs so hopefully a good outcome soon. Transplant team working closely

Test results
Hi everyone, I'm new to this whole Forum things so I thought I would just start anew thread for anybody who is interested in what my ultrasound test came out to be. I'm a little nervous about them. Keep in mind I do not drink. I have never been a drinker. So this is not because of any kind of alcohol

Choices for dialysis
Recently diagnosed with stage 5
kidney
failure
so trying to decide on which type of dialysis will be best for me. I live on an island 15 miles off the Maine coast. No dialysis clinics or facilities on the island which is only accessible by an hour and 15 minutes ferry ride.

Food Choices After Transplant
I am scheduled for a kidney transplant from my sister on July 6, 2022. I've been eating plant-based foods for a few months (suggestion from my nephrologist). I plan to continue the same, only adding some fish and maybe chicken. My question: Are there any diet restrictions during the period of recovery

Newbie with 58 egfr… what next?
Hello everyone! I am posting this on behalf of my hubby, he is about to be 42 and for about a year or so he had been feeling a bit off (mostly tiredness, lethargic, not a lot of drive to do things, etc - he even lost some weight without trying and with no changes to diet or lifestyle) which very unlike

I got the call!
I just wanted to share my positive news and encourage those of you waiting for a transplant. 4 weeks ago I got the call saying they had a suitable kidney for me. I have been on the list for 3 years and had haemodialysis for 2 years. Shock, joy, disbelief, excitement and anxiety all kicked in at once

Prazosin - Trial of One (Me)
To my surprise my urologist readily prescribed Prazosin to replace Tamsulosin, after reading the retrospective study that Bruce SF supplied me with and I forwarded to my Doc with my request to change drugs. As a trader I always look at risk and reward, this one seems to be a no-brainer, very little
