1st thanks for the info, just like everyone else I feel like I'm getting kicked again when I'm already down. I've been on the list for a year and when I started they kept telling me it should only be a year or two and after Transplant Surgeon changed the story and said from this point it will take 3 to 4 years it took me back. Then the heartless Transplant Surgeon like a bad comedian that had to add just one more bad joke she told me "your A1C has gone above my numbers and I will not let you have a kidney until it is lower". Lets just say I felt the rug get pulled out from under me and my hopes and dreams where all crushed in under a minute. I'm better now, as a Doctor of Chiropractic I've had to deal with heartless Surgeon before, but it just took sometime for me to get my head on straight and move forward. I'm on the list in ST. Louis and I'm looking to get on the list in Columbia, MO it is only an hour & 1/2 away, I hope that leave enough time to get there if I get the call.Hi i got sick just over a year ago the doctor told me waiting list for a kidney is 1 to 2 years about 2 months ago i seen the doctor who told me the waiting list time now for a kidney is gone up to 2 to 4 years. Says kidney donations are way down compared to other organ transplants, thats a kick in the nuts for me as i do dialysis 5 times a week mon, tue, thur ,fri, sat i hope everything works out better for you and that you get the call soon , take care and god bless you.
