Does anyone know anything about the use of deflazacort instead of prednisone for PMR?
Searching the web tonight for prednisone information, I came across deflazacort for the first time. It seems to have better characteristics in terms of less bone loss and other side effects. The article I found (link below) talks about kidney transplantation; does anyone know whether it is being used

Can kidney transplant patients be architects?
I am an architecture student possibly having a living donor kidney soon (stable on HD) I was wondering, does the tac tremor mean that architecture would be unrealistic? Are there any architects on here? Thanks.

Stage 3a newly diagnosed
Hello everybody, I'm new here. I got the dreadful call from my GP to say that I was probable Stage 3a CKD based on GFR 59. This has hit me so hard I find it hard to find my bearing. I cried all day and night yesterday. I don't know what to do at this moment. Anybody with a similar story? What do you

Small Update on Kidney Infection
This probably won't be my last update on this whole infection, however I just got home from the Urgent Treatment Center and wanted to keep folks posted. The doctor looked at my urine sample and unfortunately I still have infection markers and blood in my urine. I am particularly tender over my right

A bit down
Found out my little kitty has the beginnings of
kidney
failure
. She’s never been a healthy cat with lots of digestive issues as well as behavior issues. She is completely terrified of going to the vet and goes into hysterics if she even thinks I might be taking her.

Winter in the Piedmont
On Wednesday, we caught the edge of a winter storm that battered the northeast. We had an inch and a half of freezing rain, and temperatures that stayed right at freezing; everything was coated with ice. Hearing a crack, I looked up to see this typical, shallow rooted Virginia pine topple, pulled down

Cyst on kidney
Hi. I don't have a diagnosis of lupus, but have over the years for many reasons suspected that I may have it. I do have a diagnosis of antiphospholipid syndrome and was under the lupus unit for that from 2006 until last October, when I was discharged. I have been told in the past, by more than one medic

Now What?
I've given Copaxone 4 years, and I have to say that it has not allowed any exacerbations. However, I am so needle-weary. I had only three zones to begin with which had enough fat for me to inject. My abdomen and hips have lots of lipoatrophy, so I'm running out of places in which to inject. I think

Bladder neck constriction
I was having trouble urinating, a little twinge of pain like when you’re driving long time then really gotta go! Doc gave me antibiotics for possible UTI, didn’t help. Then he did Swab to identify what if any bacteria was there it came back negative. Ultrasound and another dye injection test showed

Renogram results
I haven’t actually seen the consultants at the BSGE centre I have been referred to yet but yesterday I went for a renogram at their request. At the end of the scan the technician said the results should be sent to my consultant in 7-10 days but then also asked me if I had got a follow up appointment

Swollen painful right ankle
Hi, Is a week that my right ankle is swollen and painful. My D Dimer is elevated but no blood clots. I'm wondering if it could be related to my kidney function as it came back slightly abnormal. Both Ckd and Creatinine. What is your opinion?
