My husband had very strange sensation about 2 months ago. He describes it “electric ants marching from his temple to the end of the arms” and felt nauseous. If I think back, it might have been seizures.It went away after 2 weeks, then he started suffering from daily headache. He always had migraine with

QUEENing like a G
Yeah that title is kinda full of Slang and maybe not very Queeny. I don't even know what it all means. I've been gone a minute. I had two classes to finish and a week of an exam that will signify if I am able to move forward or not in my program. So I have left it in God's hands and I'm moving on. I

Severe, 45-minute long leg cramps
I'm scheduled for a
kidney
transplant
and hoping that the cramps will go away.... Has anyone else experienced this? And did the cramps go away after your transplant?

Fluid around liver post transplant
Hi, I'm 2 years post liver
transplant
, and I'm currently in hospital for a
kidney
infection. Thankfully they seem to have got this under control, even though my kidneys are only working around 43%. The worry is that a CT scan has shown up some fluid around my liver.

Kidney-Shaped Pierced Earrings
I wore these a few times to raise awareness of my need for a
transplant
. Just got a
kidney
from my sister and it's settling in nicely. Would love to gift these to someone who could get some use out of them. They come with a matching "lapel" pin. Purchased from Etsy.

Hyperparathyroidism diagnosis plz help!
Hi Everyone, I had my
kidney
transplant
8months ago after being on dialysis for almost 6years. My dr. Just told me I have a severe hyperparathyroidism and that’s mainly because I was on dialysis for so long. He prescribed Cinacalcet to be taking once a day.

ATG treatment /Rabbit antigens
Hi as previously explained I am awaiting bone marrow transplant. Have been told I will need rabbit antigens or ATG ahead of the process. From what the consultant has said it can cause lots of side effects eg high temp amongst other things. Has anybody else had this treatment? Thanks Joanne

blood test bingo!
I've just been to Bristol stem cell department in preparation for a possible Stem cell transplant. I had to have 14 phials of blood taken for tests. Is this a record at one sitting? !!
