iv not had this operation plenty of others and a fake knee in 2004.. it dose my heart good to know you are healing and doing well and the body has not rejected.. keep positive man. rock on my friend. chris.
No. All I had was open heart surgery when I was 12 and again at 36. Cant let it slow you down. Keep a positive attitude, onward and upward!
my dad got a kidney transplant a number of years ago 2 weeks before my wedding. he was out of the hospital and walking around just fine by wedding day. he's been ok since. about a year or so after I got married, my best man in my wedding had his dad get a double lung transplant 2 weeks before his wedding and was able to make the wedding as well. weird coincidence, and his dad is doing fine too. both transplants performed at the same hospital. best of luck to you. the new kidney really made an improvement in my dad's health and energy. now if he would just lose some weight and eat better, the rest of his health problems wouldn't be as bad.
Good to hear that you are doing well after the transplant. I'd take a bit of Wagon78's roundabout advice though and take a lot better care of myself.
thanx lads im not letting it slow me down the first pint of guinness i had after the op tasted fantastic best wishes to you all.
My wife had a kidney transplant 4 or 5 years ago. And is doing well. Keep up with the meds and the blood work and things will go well. They will play around with the meds a little the first year. Your biggest concern is your lack of an imune system that can handle stuff. She has had some serious infections that took a couple of weeks on meds (mostly intraveinous at home). Good luck Nick
I had a non-compatable blood type kidney transplant at the Mayo in 2006 due to PKD. Am doing very well.
r bradber im pkd too great to be finished with dialysis it was taking up too much time that i could be working on the rod nickleone bloods are fine creatanine is 87 anything under 100 is perfect wish your wife well nunattax
Not me, but wife (X one) had a kidney transplant when I was married to her about 18 years ago, and is doing excellent....make sure you follow your meds, as well as let the doctor know if anything feels wrong... She never had a setback, even the two week to one month normal rejection, when the doctors usually have to revise your drugs a bit..... Hang in there man..you will do fine! She is still as cankerous as ever and is now 68 years old!! Cheers......
I'm in line for a transplant, currently get dialysis 3 days a week. it's good to hear of your post op success. here's to your continued recovery
Have a friend in Baltimore who celebrated her 18th birthday in surgery donating a kidney for her maternal grandfather who was about 70 at the time. That's been about 12 years ago, donor and recipient are doing great. Glad you're doing well and, as a fellow hot rodder, glad they were able to get the "parts" to fix you up and get you back on the road.
this rodder isnt totally orignal anymore but has quality replacment parts fitted,and is a good runner again .good to hear you are doing well after light restoration
