    They can already transplant the organ incl the immune system of the donor but it is not researched enough. the drugs companies earn more money with keeping patients on immune suppressants for the rest of their lifes so have no interest in encouraging more research. It is disgusting that the government does not do something about it when so many people are affected. There is more money going into AIDS research than kidney research. sic

    That’s ridiculous . People come on. Life isn’t all smiles and laughter after transplant. I have PTSD from my hospital (to be far I was a lot sicker than most) and anxiety every day. People don’t understand that being on immunosuppressive drugs isn’t easy. You have to cautious all the time. The truth is you have lots of limitations. You can’t eat drink do have certain things. I got a LVT not a kidney transplant so they are slightly different but teh concept is still there. I hate my life everyday because of what happened. Grateful at times, but not always. It’s hard. But sure it’s great to live and all but it’s not true that you don’t have limitations. But a life with limitations is better than no life

      Thanks - that's what scares me. I am on a dozen medications now, and it seems like if there is a possible side effect, I get it. I am still probably a year away from a living donor kidney transplant (from sibling) - but I am already nervous, as I like to be in control of everything. I hope you are feeling better.
