Thanks Cariad. if you weren't married I'd love you you're always so nice and thoughtful
I don't ever remember being told that I needed to drink after transplant, but then, I was never fluid restricted either. I'm not fluid restricted now, not officially anyway. I just watch my intake, because I have no output until I'm at dialysis
Richard you silly man you asking to be slapped around!!!!
Since my kidney is taking it's own time to wake up, my fluid intake is important. It actually is helping get "Sean" working and doing it's thing. But my team has told me over and over not to get dehydrated and chance rejection. As I said on another post, each center seems to have their own set of rules. I just do what they tell me!! If they tell me to stand on my head to make my kidney work better, watch me stnd on my head!!! Richard, I forgot about the October prediction!! Maybe it will be on Tamara's wedding day! Tell your brother we all love him (almost as much as we love you!) and appreciate what he wants to do for you.
I want to see you PARIS!!!!!!
Decreased dose is recommended in renal failure or ESRD patients. For DVT prophylaxis in a patient with GFR < 30, a dose of 30 mg daily is recommended. For DVT prophylaxis in a patient with GFR > 30, full dose (40 mg daily) can be given. For treatment of DVT/PE, the standard recommended dose is 1.5 mg/kg once daily. If the GFR < 30, the dose should be changed to 1 mg/kg daily.
So my brother the vegetarian is upset that they want to use heparin during the op and wants to know if there's a vegetarian friendly alternative? Anyone know?
