thank you. I'm A- and I can also receive an o, but thats not as big of a deal anymore because they do daisy chain transplants now. Say you match suzy and her donor matches me they will swap us all out at once.

I kept my weight down despite all the prednisone through exercise. They had me on a low protein diet for years. I consumed about 3.5 grams of protein a day. You really need to find a nephrologist. They should refer you to a dietician. If not ask to be referred. All of this stuff is very specific to the patient. If you are having problems contacting the doctor find another one. If communication is bad now it would probably continue to be so. Start calling other doctors find one you like.

As I understand it if you have a donor that does not match you they compare that donor to others on the list. If my donor matched Suzy and her donor matched George and George's friend matched me they would put us all in one hospital and perform all the surgeries at once by putting the appropriate organ in each patient.

I think it would be a great Idea. as long as People can opt out if desired.
