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

Alpha 1 antitrypsin question please
Hi- can anyone help? My GP recently requested a blood test for alpha-1 antitrypsin due to some wheezing I have, and a strong family history of COPD. The blood test that was carried out was Serum protein electrophoresis, which came back normal. I asked the GP if A1AT is included in that and she said yes

TOE echocardiogram
After two major operations in less then 18 months, kidney blockage and lung cancer lobe removal, I said never again. I’m done. Had my quota. Remind me never to say never again. Saw a cardiologist at Papworth Hospital yesterday about the mitral valve regurgitation problem they discovered during tests

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

Robotics Pancreas transplant - New hope for obese type 1 diabetes
Pancreas transplant is a standard procedure for type 1 diabetes so that one can avoid insulin. However, many type1's are denied especially if he/she is obese. Now with Robotics transplant , it is easier to perform the transplant even for an obese Type 1. https://speciality.medicaldialogues.in › ...

To Savanna01 and for all the kind people that have replied to my initial post. The CT scan my wife had was not conclusive and on 28th June had a Bronchoscopy and was to wait until the results were through and an appointment was made for 11th July. However, she got a telephone call yesterday morning

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
