A fascinating podcast on the history and current state of stem cell regeneration.
Did you know humans make around 2 1/2 million red blood cells a second? Did you know the only the stem cell transplant that can currently be done is a bone marrow one? Did you know, at a guess, there have been something like 2 million bone marrow transplants to date. I came across this episode in the

Bubbles or foam in urine.
Hi, I hope everyone is doing well. I had my kidney transplant about 5 months ago. My urine has always foam or bubbles (I'm not sure) in there. There is also no protein in my urine. My doctor's told me the only way there will be foam in my urine is when there is protein in it. They too find it unusually

TRAVELLING ABROAD, POST LIVER TRANSPLANT.
Hello there everyone. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with health insurance while travelling to America and other places where insurance is extremely expensive and sometimes extortionately so. I received a list of recommended providers from the administrators on here but I seemed to

After 2nd Vaccine Antibodies
As a kidney transplant In the USA, whose responsibility is it to test me to find out if my body has made antibodies after the second covid vaccine? Also, how long do I have to wait to be tested for antibodies?

Spinal Fusion-break Identified while being on the Lung Transplant List.
Good evening all, I have been listed on the Lung Transplant List for over 2 1/2 years now. They noticed right at the start of my evaluation that I had the start of osteoporosis which they put down to years of taking prednisolone. Even though I had this they were still happy to list me. I have recently

Ongoing liver assessment stress
Over the last few weeks my husband has been assessed on an outpatient basis to see whether he's suitable for a liver transplant. His last test was this week on Wednesday when he had to do a treadmill test to see how fit his heart is. Just by chance we were looking at his medical record on line and

Auto Stem Cell transplant?
Hi, Curious to know if anyone out there has had R-chop, then relapsed and the next line of treatment recommended was SCT? I've been battling Marginal Zone lymphoma (2016), transformed to DLBCL (2018) and now it's back again. The auto process sounds very scary (dangerous), and with a 30-50% success rate

Hospital Service Experience for Bilirary Atresia, Leed, Uk
Our daughter will have another operation to attempt to try and clear her Jaundice next week. She had a Kasia on Dec' 14th (born 14/10/20). They will give her a DISDA scan tomorrow (17/02/20) and hopefully try and establish the location of the problem that is still preventing her Jaundice from clearing

VO2max vs cardio fitness
I'm new to this site. I'm a 74 year old man living in York, UK. My Fitbit gives me a score of 42 which is supposed to be excellent for my age. Not long ago I had a proper VO2 max test where I rode an exercise bike with a mask on and they measured my respiratory gases. I was given a score of 13. This
