Merry Christmas to all my old friends......
Howdy all.... Everything is fine in Magnolia Springs, Alabama. Hope everyone here is doing well also. I did get a little scare last week. Went for my normal bimonthly check up and was about to leave and the Neph stopped me. He said that my urine test had shown protein for the first time since the tr...

Miriam... I would not do it until I spoke with my nephrologist. I would think there would be a better plan that would be less reliant on protein. I know your new kidney is doing it's job..but all that protein could make it work harder than it needs to be working. It is great to be able to eat just a...

The bravest man that ever lived...
The bravest man that ever lived was the first guy to drink milk. You can just imagine him standing there with his friends saying...."Hey let's go squeeze them things and drink whatever comes out"

Pete... Thank you so much from all of us here for considering giving your brother a kidney. I got a kidney from my son just ten months ago. My quality of live has been unbelievably well since the transplant. If your brother is in need of a transplant..then he is a mighty sick guy right now. It is so...

Terry... Howdy from the Deep Southern U. S. I have had my sons kidney for ten months. Once you get approved to give your husband the kidney...then you have to be approved for the laproscopic (keyhole) surgery. They can only remove your right kidney via a laproscope. So it has to be qualified rather ...

Possible problems with renal artery....
Howdy folks... For those that don't know me here...I had a transplant back in late September of last year. I saw my local nephrologist yesterday. I have also been seeing a nephrologist at the hospital every two months. I thought missing a local appointment or two wouldn't hurt. My local neph jumped ...

June... Have they given you a renal diet plan and are you following it correctly? I found that before my transplant...the more closely I followed the diet plan the better I felt. Speak to your doctor about the nausea and perhaps he can give you a medication that will help. Hang in there.... Ronnie M...

Re: HI Ronnie
Natalie... Prednisone gave me some problems in the very beginning. Ask them for something like Paxil, Attivan or any of the other drugs in that class to offset the Prednisone. I am not trying to suggest any type of medical treatment but I was having problems with the prenisone for the first couple o...

Jman... I bet you are right. I don't know about vodka on the skin though. I used to enjoy a vodka martini so much that I am afraid that I would also buy vermouth and some olives just to see if they might help working from the inside out. This seems to come and go and I bet your suggestion is right o...

Re: Special Thanks to Ronnie
Carolyn and Richard... Don't worry a minute about what small inconveniences you may go through during and for a short spell after transplant. Believe me...It is worth it all worth to get where I am at. I feel wonderful every day. I have not had a sniffle, sneeze, cough or anything since transplant. ...

Sue... Thank you for asking! Jessie is still paralyzed from waist down. They are getting her to stand up now with braces and crutches. The doctors say that is as good as she will ever get. She is a fighter though and is working very hard to get as well as she can. She was fourteen when the accident ...
