Hey ya'll!!!
My name is Nat Larson, I'm a dialysis patient from Winslow, AZ. I've been on dialysis now for a year and ten months. I had a kidney transplant in 2003, it rejected in 2008. FSGS, was the original condition that brought about my kidney failure. I'm a singer/songwriter, I record and produce my own music. I love tattoes and piercings. (eventhough I can't get either anymore) I'm the only one in my age group on dialysis in Winslow, so it's really awsome for me to be here. Noone here really knows how this is for me.. Simply because there is noone here goin through exactly the same thing in the same point in thier life....thank you for readin'

Welcome Nat! :waving; This is a great site and we are so glad you found us! I can't wait to hear more about you. I transplanted in 2008 and will be celebrating 2 years Nov. 5th. I'm interested to know how or why your transplant failed? If there even was a reason.

Hi Nat and welcome to IHD. AZ is warm.... too warm sometimes but I'd love to live there. Be sure to come here and read and learn. We are all different and at different stages but it is amazing what I've learned here.
Looking foreward to your posts.

Welcome Nat, you'll like it here. Maybe you could start your own thread after a while...singing and songs sounds great. I guess AZ means Arizona ?

My Blokey (husband) is one of the youngest at his centre too (he's 34). He's been on dialysis since June 2009. If I ever get to cross the pond (I'm in England), Arizona is one state I definitely want to visit, despite the fact that I hate heat (and I hear it's hot?)!
;D

Hello from Phoenix, Nat! :welcomesign;

Welcome Nat :2thumbsup; Glad you found us and we look forward to reading more of your posts. Several of us have FSGS -- mine is idiopathic, no reason. Did the FSGS reoccur and effect the transplanted kidney? I am 6 weeks post transplant and the FSGS reoccurring is a concern for me.
This is a great group. Members really care about each other. You will find great support. I will probably be asking you more questions about your first transplant----if you don't mind! Welcome to IHD. :2thumbsup;
