Possible brain lymphoma
His neurosurgeon told us it seems like lymphoma from MRI scan image, which is common among people on immunosuppressant after
organ
transplant
. I have been feeling completely broken since he had emergency MRI two weeks ago. Our world suddenly turned out upside down and lost all the colours.

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

Discitis nearly killed me. I suspect streptococcus B was injected into me by Hormone injection for PCa
I have PCa. I am also immune suppressed due to kidney transplant. In February I started hormone injections due to BCR. A couple of weeks later I started to get back pain. Doctor prescribed pain killers. After about 6 weeks, many blood tests, consultations and an MRI scan I was diagnosed with discitis

6 month transplant anniversary!!! Whoo hoo
Today is the 6-month anniversary of my kidney transplant. All continues to go very well with the exception of low white blood cell count. This has improved some but still comes in between 3.0 and 3.75 with 4.0 being the bottom of the normal range. Inspite of my low WBC count and pulling of bactrim 7

10 Year Anniversary
A few weeks ago I realized this is the ten-year anniversary of when I started dialysis. I started in August of 2013 in the days after I had a knee surgery. I was 14 years old. I'm now 24 years old. In the time since I started dialysis I started and finished high school, started and finished college,

one month post op
I am one month out from my liver transplant, and am still in horrible pain, have lost 40 pounds, of which I did not have to loose, still taking OxyContin regularly, can’t sleep, and can’t eat solid foods. Any suggestions? Feeling absolutely miserable, and NO energy.
