      My dad had a kidney-pancreas transplant in 1992, and has had three kidneys and two pancreases ever since. All of his native organs still had some function, so it was thought to be preferable to add, rather than to replace.
      Post-transplant medication regimens are complex, but critical to keeping your new organs healthy and preventing rejection. If you or someone you know is contemplating getting an organ transplant, it's best to prepare for it by making sure you are taking your medications correctly before the transplant, as that habit can save and extend your life after the transplant.

    Remember organ donation is the most selfless gift you can give.
    What do you think you will specialize in when you finish your rotations etc.
    Fact, the native kidneys shrink once you have had a tx. We have a txrecipient who is 40 years post tx here in Australia

      Tony
      Especially in the health/medical field, disclaimers are required by law. There's even a disclaimer on cigarette packs.
      Every patient is different, in some way. There can be two or more patients with the same (type of) issue, but they have different things done and/or have different results.
      In October '15 I found out I have heart block and ended up with a pacemaker. They could've recommended a heart transplant, but it's not really necessary as heart block isn't something that a transplant is particularly necessary (although I could get one).
      Siobhan, I appreciate the disclaimer. It's the smart thing to do.

    These videos are so cool and I really look forward to them. I work in a hospital myself but non clinical so it's really interesting to get a closer look into the doctors world.

    I had a kidney transplant from my favourite teacher Amanda! It took me a while to recover but Amanda (still today) is with me every step of the way from school to meditation to hospital addmitions to all the other stuff! And as usual Amanda sometimes had to be there when facing my biggest fear almost every day (needles 💉) but itz part of my daily meditation and it has to be done!

    I’ve been watching you since I was a student nurse, and now I’m 6 months in as an RN in an acute renal ward, we we have transplants and HD continuously, among other acutely unwell CKD,AKI patients.. I was very excited to see this video. Renal is so diverse and interesting 🥰

    Do you ever get anxiety waiting for your pager to go off? I know for myself, I wouldn’t be able to sleep.. I’d be so anxious anticipating another page! (I’ve learned watching these videos that we live in the same city, super cool!)

    I knew all the transplant trivia cause I got one at 10 months old. Fun fact: mine were removed so I only have one, and it's been up and running for 18 years now. I have a special appreciation for what you do.

    Are all shifts that you do call shifts? Or do you have “normal” hours during the week and occasionally have call shifts? I’m just curious how a typical work schedule is for doctors

      I think she touched on her schedule when she was talking about whether or not it's dangerous to be as sleep-deprived as they are.

    My dad had a lung transplant last year, coming up on a year in a couple of months. He's doing great now. Transplants are such a miracle, and I am so grateful to the doctors who are able to perform them.

    I love your vlogs so much, Siobhan! You manage to keep it informative, but not boring. Educational, but not too scientific. I love the way you edit your vlogs and your work ethic that shines through. Been watching you since 40k subscribers, and will be here until 4 million! Much love from Indonesia💕

    So this may go unread but still wanted to express how much I appreciate what you do:
    I'm sure you, like any other person, do have your down days but the optimism you hold comes right through! I am a 19 y/o who has conditions that require regular hospital trips (and it's always been like that - in fine on the whole tho haha) and what I can is that a smile and the glimmer of hope that can give with a few optimistic words can do what sometimes even medicine cannot do! I've been treated by not so optimistic medics too in the past (although lucky not as often) and so I really appreciate how med staff like you show that glimmer of hope, where there otherwise may not even be, and that too when you yourselves work so incredibly hard!!!!!!

    • @ViolinMD

    I think the coolest thing about kidney transplants is that the organ starts working as soon as it gets connected to the bloodstream! It’s not like a heart where you’d have to remove the patient from a machine to test if the organ will work, or a liver where several tests are required post-op to monitor functionality. Kidneys just go to work as soon as they’re “plugged in”!

    Ah yes, renal! 23.5 years and mine still going. You kinda become an honorary doctor when you've dealt with renal for that long as I have, was able to pick up what you were about to say about those patients before you even said it - for me it's been there, done that.
    Now studying biomedical science to somewhat formalise that knowledge at university.
