Title: Question about Second Kidney Transplants
Post by: Cordelia on July 06, 2011, 12:34:55 PM

Just wondering, I read some of you have to have a second kidney trasnplant a year or so later because your first one failed. If that happens in such a short time span, do you have to go through the whole rigamarol of pre-transplant testing all over again in such a short time later? Just curious.
