Hi, I'm Arch. Glad to meet you.
I've been on and off dialysis for the past 11, going on 12 years now. I had a dual transplant (kidney and pancreas) back in 2007, but I was back on dialysis since May of 2009. Needless to say, not a newbie.
I'm 47, married, and living under protest in East Tennessee. My wife and I are trying to get some kind of subsidized apartment in Pinellas County, FL. -- that's Tampa, Clearwater, Saint Petersburg area.
I'm sure you guys will get to know more than I could write here as time goes on. I welcome any and all to join in, no matter whether you agree or disagree. And if I might disagree with what you say, it doesn't mean I won't consider you one of my friends. So have a good night all of you, thanks for the site, and I'll talk more when I have more time to devote more of my attention to these boards.
Slainte,
Arch

Living under protest in beautiful East Tennessee?
Well, howdy neighbor. I've been a transplant to ET since January 20, 1970.
Welcome to IHD, Arch!

Truly looking forward to getting to know you!

LOL! Are you less likely to have to live under protest in Florida? For your sake, I hope so!
Since you're a pro at this dialysis gig, I'm sure you will have a lot of valuable advice for those of us who are either pre-dialysis or are just getting started. Thanks for taking the time to join. Welcome!

Hello & Welcome Arch! I'm from the Middle of Tenn (Nashville). East Tenn is beautiful so I don't understand the "protest" part, but Im sure you Know!
Sorry about the failure of your dual transplant. Wishing you luck for another one in the future.
Again Welcome & God Bless,

Hello Arch, unfortunately with your topic title I now have Mick Jagger/ Rolling Stones song in my head. :rofl;

Welcome to IHD, Arch! Great attitude - we all love a good, spirited discussion on here - but it's more fun if we don't take it to heart when we disagree!

Welcome to our community, Arch! You have found just the right place for information support and encouragement. And with your history, you must have much to add as well.
Looking forward to hearing more from you.

Hi Arch...both ET and Fl are beautiful so I can't imagine protesting to either one! But...to each their own. Welcome to IHD and I'm looking forward to seeing your posts.
