Hard journey to waiting list
My first time writing here. Day 71 of my daughter being on the liver transplant list. A number of years ago my daughter was diagnosed with NAFLD and was very overweight. 2 years ago aged 32 she started to have a fear of chocking on food so really struggled to eat - continued to ask for help but roll

Post Kasai_ biliary atresia
My son is 6 months last week, he had biliary atresia and they did the kasai at 5 weeks, the jaundice is still there, how long does it take to clear? Also he was diagnosed with Cirrhosis of the liver. We start solids this week. The stool has changed to yellow now but sometimes it's oily. We were recommended

Post Liver Transplant - MASLD (Fatty Liver Disease)
When I had my liver transplant back in 2016. I secretly promised my donor that I would look after this gift of life, and never knowingly cause it any damage. So here I am, almost eight years later, and I've now been diagnosed with having MASLD (Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Randi Needs a Kidney
My name is Randi and I live in Maine. I have had kidney disease for many years. Over time my kidney disease has gotten worse, causing my kidneys not to work well enough to keep me alive. My treatments at this time are limited to dialysis or a kidney transplant. I have been on dialysis for some time now

Recovery in exercise routine
Hi all, I have read that it will take longer for us (people with kidney transplants and on immunosuppressants) to recover after exercise. Do you find this to be true for you? What does that feel like? How do you structure your exercise to account for the need for recovery time (if you do)? I feel

PKD belly
Kidney transplant in 2011 for polycystic kidney disease. I have developed pkd belly as my native have grown to the size of small footballs. I'm 78 so major surgery to remove them is quite risky.

My doctor told me i can get transplant early due to age factor. My question is that can someone explain their transplant

seeking a kidney donor
My name is Deepti and I am 35 years old . In April 2024, I was diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease and now rely on peritoneal dialysis (PD) 7 days a week. Dialysis is exhausting and restricts my daily activities . I hold a Masters degree from Purdue and work as a Data engineer in Silicon Valley
