Transplant Failure due to Tacrolimus
I got my transplant 3 yrs ago from my father with 50 percentage match. Creatinine started rising after an yr and reached 2.2, then biopsy was done which revealed side effect of tacrolimus. Doctor reduced tacrolimus but creatinine continued to rise and reached 18 when I started plasmapheresis and dialysis

Recommend Home Dialysis?
Hi - My dad has been on dialysis since October 2018. He seems like he's been getting depressed and wants to now shift to dialysis in the home. We're worried and would prefer him to be under the supervision of medical staff, but also understand how draining it can be to work full time and go to the dialysis

The ups and downs of dialysis. Where do I start?
Well on Valentine's Day 2014 I was diagnosed with ESRD. Did peritoneal dialysis at home. Enjoyed the convenience, only had one infection and I'm not downplaying the infection, but it wasn't contracted via not following procedure on my part. I started with a machine and eventually went to hanging

Remicade; anyone on it?
Is anyone on this site with CKD have to use remicade for another condition? If so, how does it affect your CKD? Do you get an infusion? Can you use it if you are on dialysis? Please let me know.

Follow that kidney diet
I found out last August for the first time that my kidneys were damaged from years of using ibuprofen for chronic pain from a car accident. My gfr was 40 to 45. My creatinine, protein, and potassium were all high. I was seriously upset. So, I found this online group, fed myself a strict kidney diet,

Need to do more than control Creatinine levels?
As I understand it, high levels of creatinine indicates poor kidney function, therefore if I can lower my creatinine level by some other action or change of diet etc, the poor kidney function would still be present and would continue to decline and eventually dialysis would be needed? Am i correct? So
