Preparing for Transplant
Can anyone give me advice on how to prepare for transplant. My husband is listed and I feel like for me, organising things and getting ready goes a long way towards feeling emotionally prepared for it. I guess I might be a bit of a control freak, so I hate not knowing when and how everything will happen

Lisinopril side effects
Anyone been diagnosed with prerenal azotemia? Please be careful with Lisinopril. I have been taking this for a year and a half. Just had lab work and nephrologist said I had this. Have been taken off medication and hope renal function will come back. This is scary stuff. Only symptoms I had was occasional

Is there something we can do?
I feel that this forum mostly consists of people acknowledging each otherās struggles but more often than not without any real answers or solutions (because we just donāt have them) and in a similar way to how reddit got together to change Wall Street with investments, or BLM protested and got the worlds
