Passing blood for almost 3 years
Since 2017 I’ve been passing blood in my stool. Sometimes when I wipe it looks like I cut myself, like it’s nothing but blood. Then others it might be just small chunks of blood . Sometimes there will be blood on or mixed in with stool, sometimes the water will turn reddish in the toilet, and sometimes

Methyl cellulose
Hi, I’ve had IBS for years and tried lots of medications to help with diarrhoea, eventually my dr prescribed celevac ( methyl cellulose). This changed my life, I go to the toilet normally, able to go for a walk without worrying etc. Unfortunately I was told today that it’s been discontinued and no longer

Spinal Fusion identified while on Lung Transplant List
Good morning all, I have been listed on the Lung Transplant List for over 2 1/2 years now. They noticed I had the start of osteoporosis when I was officially listed which they put down to years of taking prednisolone. I have recently had another bone density scan and it showed up a spinal fusion? Has

Study indicates COVID-19 vaccines are safe for organ transplant patients.
In what may be the first study of its kind, Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers have documented the reaction of nearly 200 solid organ transplant recipients to their first vaccine inoculation against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The findings, they say, provide evidence that both the Moderna

Only water fasting after renal transplantation. How long is safe?
Has anybody done only water fasting for over 24 hours after kidney transplant? I had done 7-8 days of only water fasting prior to KT and now have been doing IF of 20/4. I’m also a vegan of 16 years. Is long period of fasting on water safe for renal transplant recipients on immunosuppressive meds? Thx

Liver transplant ambivalence
I took my brother to his hepatology appt this morning (he has hepatopulmonary syndrome as a result of his liver disease). The registrar was great and gave us an overview of all the LT considerations and my brother stared at the floor quite disinterested-he won’t read up on it and would rather not know
