hello everyone
i have found some information on the sane forum for Kidney disease and mental health
i thought i was feeling ok with being diagnosed with kidney dease stage 4 with only one kidney
which means my only one kidney is working at 21%
now my specialist is wanting me to register to go on the kidney transplant
I am feeling so tired and sometimes it is hard to keep on keeping on
i am feeling soo many emotions at the moment
i have forms to get started to go on the list for a transplant
i also have diabetes which makes it hard and sometimes feeling overwhelmed
my mr shaz wants to be a living donor , he will have to go through the same tests as me

@Shaz51 good luck with the doctor tomorrow. I assume you are seeing him/her face-to-face, not by Telehealth... I hope s/he is helpful.
