Kidney issues post liver transplant
Hi I'm 1 year post liver transplant, but my kidneys seem to be taking a hit. My GFR is reducing at each blood test. It is now 39 and drops by about 5 every time. They've not said if it's now CKD but I'm worried as the internet says 39 is stage 3B. They have reduced my tacrolimus to 1mg twice daily,

EGFR varies a lot from one day to the next
Just to relate a recent experience regarding egfr. The purpose is to hopefully reduced a lot of the worry and/or panic many post about when there is a sudden change in their egfr. I am a person with one kidney. A person with one kidney MAY maintain what is classified as a normal egfr. BUT in most

Experience with Tacrolimus with or without Azathioprine
Hi all! My drs are suggesting to put me on tacrolimus alongside AZA to help with my joint pain. Has anyone been on tacrolimus? With or without AZA or another immunosuppressant? How is your experience? Anyone have any knowledge/experience of long-term tacrolimus? Also, I got told by the nurse

Spiny Mice offer hope for kidney regeneration
As expected, other mice treated in the same way progressed to organ
failure
. "The dramatic and complete recovery of
kidney
function over a two-week time course in spiny mice was quite surprising to us," Okamura says.

Third COVID-19 vaccine dose may prompt response in transplant recipients.
A third dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine induces a serologic response in 49 percent of kidney transplant recipients who did not respond after receiving two doses, according to a research letter published online July 23 in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Ilies Benotmane, M.D., from Strasbourg

Has anyone used cordyceps as an adjunctive treatment for kidney disease?
Cordyceps worm mold is widely used in China to treat kidney disease, and some scientific studies indicate that it may reduce creatinine values in patients with chronic kidney disease. I have never found found much personal benefit from it. Conclusions of recent Chinese study: "Current evidence shows

Referral to renal unit?
I’ve recently been in hospital for angioplasty which unfortunately couldn’t go ahead due to the twisting and an aneurysm in the RCA. I had a kidney removed 3 years ago due to cancer and the remaining kidney never picked up from about 45 gfr. It has gone steadily down to 37gfr. I had blood tests carried

We are looking for people with a diagnosis of chronic pain (including fibromyalgia, CRPS, chronic lower back pain, etc.)

Let's talk about BP and CKD. (Take your ACE at night if using it for BP too?)
Poster Gerald1967 linked to this NCBI listed article (2014) which talks about BP and natural (vs. pharma) BP control approaches. Interesting read generally, but this popped out. The journo writes it as if it's a known fact. It likely is a known fact, but just not a fact known by your typical patient
