Psychotic Episodes
Just had a very successful liver transplant 8 weeks ago and am in the very lucky position to feeling better than I have in years. Now everything has settled into a nice routine I just wanted to raise awareness to post op psychotic episodes. I was warned that it is common for post-transplant patients

Just wanted to share my Primary Myelofibrosis journey so far…….
Hi all, My diagnosis is Primary Myelofibrosis +Jak-2 &V617F mutation which was in August 2022. This was found after several visits to GP for chest infections and ultrasound scans which found an enlarged spleen. Also had bloods and bone marrow biopsy sent to Bart’s hospital for confirmation. Initial

CBD; worth a try for pain relief..?
Hello all, hope you're all reasonably well! As have posted here before, Dad is weak with Stage 4 Lung cancer an the immunotherapy that he's having. There's some pain and he keeps this at bay with paracetamol3x/day. I understand that CBD oil could be a good thing to try for pan relief. wondering

Just found out I need a kidney transplant
Hello, I just found out I need a kidney transplant. I developed kidney disease from taking a medicine that scarred and damaged my kidneys and they’ve just gotten worse and worse. After a biopsy, we discovered that my kidneys are even worse than the numbers show. I am so overwhelmed. My mom could possibly

Good sats - so why so breathless?
THAT is indeed the question. Why, with my peripheral O2 levels at 94/5 %even 96% am I still fighting to breath? It goes like this. I wake short of breath. I rise and take my Oximeter (I have several; they all show the same) . My level is, say 92%. I do controlled breathing using a computer monitor

Elevated creatinine from tacrolimus?
I am 19 months out from my kidney transplant from a deceased donor. Was doing well and my creatinine was actually within the normal range at about a year post transplant. However, since then my creatinine has been creeping up and now is 1.74. Have tried lowering my protein intake, and more hydration

Kidney Transplant help
Hi everyone! Hope everyone is having a wonderful Sunday. I got a call from a gentleman who’s been trying to test as a living donor for me. Mayo Clinic has approved him. We are so excited, grateful, thankful, humbled and yet nervous at the same time. ****Can anyone tell me what they have experienced

One year stem cell transplant anniversary
This week a year ago I received my donor's stem cells. For those of you not following my posts, it was hard going in the early months but by late June things were looking a lot better both mentally and physically and my hair started its return.. My platelets were one of the slowest things to recover

Trying to Maintain Money and Mental Health
My spouse received a kidney transplant in November 2022. He was on dialysis for 18 months and also developed diabetic retinopathy which requires 5 surgeries prior to and after his transplant. He wants to work and going on disability would be terrible for his mental health. We are having trouble financially
