Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Dialysis and
kidney
transplant
are the only two treatments for people with
kidney
failure. It is also important for patients to continue managing any other health conditions they may have, including high blood pressure and/or diabetes.

Hi everyone and Happy New Year
I underwent a
kidney
transplant
in 2020. Nothing to do with Vasculitis ( congenital renal abnormalities) and me and ‘Sidney’ the kidney are doing well. I was informed that my chances of rejection are low due to years of immuno suppressive therapies.

GI issues post transplant
I am now 7 months post
kidney
transplant
. I was fortunate to never be on dialysis and had a living donor. Things are going just fine with good lab work and I feel great. I am back doing most of what I did prior to transplant.

Kidney transplant
My husband received a
kidney
transplant
from a deceased donor last month. He is doing well. Hopefully it will continue that way.

angry about kidney transplant?
I received a
kidney
transplant
about a year ago. I was donated a live one. However, I was very uncertain about transplant, and feel like I was pushed into having one due to other people’s insistence, amongst other things. As such, I am very resentful and angry.

recent kidney transplant
June 27, 2023 Just 10 weeks ago I had a living
kidney
donor
transplant
. Looking for advice as far as lab values when they’re not normal or things that sound concerning such as a rise in antibody numbers. I wondered how they treated that and how difficult it was to get things stabilized.

Pork, Autoimmune Disease, and Parkinson's?
And... the other day I heard about the man who got a pig
kidney
transplant
and the radio guy said humans share more DNA with pigs than we share with chimps (he was wrong, but we do share about 98% of DNA with pigs).
