Quality of life on immunosuppressants
I felt better in

before dialysis started than I do now at five months post kidney transplant. I am 49, and I have a healthy diet and I have been pushing myself to get 30-40 minutes of cardiovascular activity at least 4 times per week. I take care of myself very well.

Rural Air Pollution
In our small rural adjacent norfolk villages, we had, a couple of weeks back, an incident whereby the whole of the communities were pervaded by a hugely strong, powerful and intolerable stench (described as like domestic oil or paraffin) which filled the air for the best part of the day. It was reported

Antibody infusions?
I know a young man in my community who received a kidney transplant a few years ago. I have heard thru mutual friends that he has been diagnosed with covid and in the hospital not doing too well. Anyway, this brings me to think about treatments...are transplant patients able to get the antibody infusions

Staying on the Path
After having multiple back surgeries I became extremely inactive afraid to move because of pain. This led to weight gain and I developed diabetes. That was my wake up call.

Neurologist review?
My husband is very unwell, cirrhosis,
kidney
failure
, heart issues and constant lymphoedema infections. Back during diagnosis, neurologist said FND until more symptoms. Do I spend time and money seeking answers that might not be there? I don't expect anyone to tell me what to do, just suggestions.

Hair Loss
Hi everyone, I have been on dialysis for 9 months. I am on the registry for a liver and kidney transplant. Along with other symptoms that so many of us suffer from, it is devastating that I have lost half of my hair : (( This started about 6 months into dialysis. Thyroid issues have been ruled out

Immense sweating
I am 2 yes 9 months post kidney transplant. Has anyone had issues with immense sweating that your hair is sopping wet? I thought it could be my thyroid but that’s not it. Apparently my blood work is stable. I’ve asked the transplant team, nephrologist and an Endochronogist….. no answers. I am wondering

Have really bad stomach pains/constipation since changing to the chewable tablets. Anyone else?
I have been taking Caltrate calcium + Vit D3 supplements for over a year with no problems at all. Sadly I can't get these in Cyprus anymore so I've bought an alternative called Natecal D3, which are chewable. I've been taking them for 4 days and have developed bloating, wind, constipation all day
