Liver transplants
I was talking to a friend of mine about my liver problems and she thought that I may be too old (I'm nearly 72) for a liver transplant - is this correct? Thanks, Ron

Ways to Reduce Cyclosporine Toxicity
One of the worst threats to the survival of kidney transplants is the toxicity to the kidneys of cyclosporine. Many scientific studies have shown that the amino acid arginine, which is widely available as a supplement, can prevent graft loss due to cyclosporine toxicity. However, a study in using arginine

Paracetamol does not work
Hi all Following on from another post regarding paracetamol I noticed that almost every sub-thread includes at least one response along the lines of “safe, negligible side-effects, painkiller, better than x, just paracetamol etc etc ”, and despite posting a link to one of the most trustworthy research

Rejected for Liver transplant
Unfortunately my wife got the bad news last night, that she is not being offered a liver transplant. I did ask why she has been turned down & it was revealed she was unable to complete the necessary physical tests, but I believe it is a combination of her age 69 & the fact that she was not strong enough

Initial appointment
Hi, looking for some advice and guidance. My dad has been referred to kings for a potential liver transplant. He’s got an appointment on the 11th at kings and the letter just says it’s to meet with one of the team. Does anyone know what might happen on this day and if so what he needs to be prepared

Am I the only one?
I develop pains when I am under stress and panic - usually my stomach, I get trapped gas under my ribs, I belch, I start to have panic attacks and imagine I have every deadly disease out there. It can be triggered by a pharmecutical commercial. I lost my brother last year and his birthday was 2/2.

Lung transplant
This week my lung specialist asked me if I would want to have a lung transplant. So I am going to go to Toronto and meet with the transplant team and see what a lung transplant is all about. So my question for everyone is, if you had a chance to get a lung transplant would you get one done, and why ?
