Yep, you're in the right place and glad you're here. This is agreat place to vent your anger and frustrations, get support and empathy, and true straight talk from many experienced and knowledgeable people. Use the search feature and check out the vast store of information which has been so generously shared here. My husband and two of his children have PKD so we know a lot about what you may have been through. Hope you like this place as much as we do.

Welcome to our site! BTW, transplants in the Philippines ain't so great. I've been there. Did a film about buying kidneys. You can get a kidney from a prisoner locked up in the national penitentiary, Mantelupa. For their donation, they have their sentences commuted.

Welcome to our community. You have certainly come to the right place. We look forward to hearing from you. Take some time and wade through our many posts. You will have to do some choosing - those topics that particularly interest you. Make sure that you give your own perspective on things. We are glad to have you with us. What are some of your reasons? (as if I didn't know)
