5000th Liver Transplant at QE
Attended 'The 5000th Liver Transplant at QE' celebration in Birmingham and a wonderful nurse came up to me who I recognised, 'Yokai'. This wonderful lady looked after my family and myself during the time I arrived at the QE at 2pm on 5th Oct 2016 up to the time I was wheeled into theatre at 2.10am early

Six pack after transplant- possible? :)
Hi guys, I hope you are doing well. I have a bit of a random question but want to see what your opinion is. I am very grateful to have received a liver transplant over one year ago now. Due to the nature of my operation I was left (intentionally) with an incisional hernia which I am hoping will be repaired

Transplant Prep!
Hi Everyone! I am happy to announce that I will be receiving a kidney transplant on July 29th thanks to an amazing living donor. Just confirmed today! I wanted to ask two questions: 1) What should I remember to bring for my hospital stay to make it more comfortable? 2) What are things you wish you

IS CHRONIC CIRROSIS A DEATH SENTENCE?
Forum members, My son who is 34 is in hospital with this condition. He has been an alcohol abuser for many years, and this is his first admittance to hospital. If his liver cannot recover or repair itself, and without having a liver transplant, is there no hope for our sons recovery? Worried Woollid

As of yesterday..I’m on the national registry!
I’ve been absent from the forum for a while due to illness. A month after I lost my husband, I ended up in the ICU. My H and H was 6 and 19 I think. I was bleeding from my esophageal varicies. They identified the bleed and tied them off. My liver was close to not functioning at all, and because of the

Anxious about liver fibroscan results!
I have had fatty liver disease and now NASH (presumably). I have had 3 fibroscans 6 months apart and I'm now Stage 3 Fibrosis. kPa was 5.4, then 7.5 and now 11.4. CAP was 328, 306, and now 216. I am scared out of my mind. I just retired, and I feel like I'm going to drop dead in a year now. I'm not ready

Polycystic Kidney disease & receiving a Kidney transplant
If you had a transplant and it was due to polycystic kidney disease (PKD), I would like to know if you had the first year low white blood counts and low hemoglobin. 7 mos post transplant my spouse that found out he had PKD at age 30 (now 59), is having since mid March major hemoglobin low numbers.

Hi, I've just joined this group. I was diagnosed with leukaemia in 2010 and had a bone marrow transplant in 2011. Unfortunately that didn't work properly so I went onto a new drug to control it. This drug was really good at controlling the rare mutation I have, but came with a lot of cardio-vascular

Should I ask for more tests or being assessed for a transplant?
I am a woman, not yet 62. Though diagnosed about 7y ago, when I was told I probably have a liver transplant in my future, I have always been pretty much asymptomatic. I now have NASH cirrohosis, end stage-- had a variceal bleed over the new year, they did an endoscopy, found three varices, but because
