Kidney Patient Guide

Hi I know that this is a very serious letter to write, but, at the moment I am really finding this difficult. I have so much to say, but when I actually sit down to write, my mind goes into over time. I am blabbing about the dog, who is staying at my mum's, that the weather is awful, that my rings d...

Is anyone feeling the cold after a transplant. :cry: Its been a year for me, the heating is on constantly, even through the night, then I have to wear extra layers. I even wear a "noddy" hat at bed time, which my partner's not pleased about, especially when the bobble goes in his face. :oo...

Congratulations on your new kidney.
