I can see it now...a big fight in a kitchen, or a pizzeria...fight goes back and forth, then suddenly Dolph gets the upper hand, kicks the guy into the oven, shuts the door, and makes movie/reddit history...

STALLONE, MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!

Yes, to my wife's cousin. He's been on dialysis for about two years. And actually, we had to participate in the Swap Program, so my physical kidney went to someone else, and he received his actual kidney from the other donor that was part of the chain.

Long term effects, as they know now, are minimal. There are no eating or drinking restrictions, and alcohol can still be enjoyed, as long as you keep it at "social drinking" levels. They recommend no smoking and no contact sports; and yearly check-ups to make sure your remaining kidney is doing OK. As for pain, my abdomen is still sore, but the medication helps with that. I walk like an old man, but every day is better, so I'm actually surprised that I feel this good three days later!

mahalo, sir! I hope things work out for you, as quickly as possible!

No, my doctor told me it would be the left one, even though there were two arteries attached two it. I have heard that the degree of difficulty for removing the right one is higher, because it involves moving the liver, but I never asked my doctor, so I'm not sure.
