Thanks for the warm welcome. I am so glad I found a place to vent about transplants, meds, dialysis, side effects...etc. and actually have people who know what I am talking about. It's was crazy when I told family and friends that I needed another transplant some of them looked at me like "Huh?? transplants aren't a cure?" I think my mom was the only one who wasn't surprised. Over the years I would always tell her about my check ups and when I told her that I was going to need another kidney she even said she knew it was coming because I would tell her how my creatinine was creeping up she knew that was a sign that my kidneys were not doing good.

I am glad I found you guys! :big hug:

This is the only place I can go to and people know what I am feeling.  I don't have to explain anything. Everyone is on the same journey.  And everyone is quick to help, find answers or just tell me everything will be ok.  Glad you found us too.   :clap;
