    Beyond the first year of a transplant ...

    I am about to hit my 3rd year post transplant. For the first year I was very careful to always wear a mask when around flowers, dirt, poop etc. I was always told the first year can be the hardest. After getting into my second year I slowly got more and more "daring". I do have a few plants that...

    transplant questions

    My work-up took a few months but that was me taking it slow. Scheduling a few appointments each visit is the best way to get things done. The only things that have a particular time to wait would be vaccinations. You have to do a series of 2 or 3 hepatitis shots which you have to wait so many...

    O Negative Blood and Transplant

    I have O negative blood and I just got my transplant about 6 weeks ago. I was pretty bad but got lucky because I was on the list for only 2 weeks. I know another person that was waiting for lungs and was also O negative and their wait was about 3 months. I got mine in Iowa at UIHC.

    to those who worked PT while on SSDI

    I worked fulled time for about 9 years. I have owned my house (Mortgage) for about 6 years now. I have never been married so I have no back-up income. I guess since I was doing well, that didn't really scare me at all. This past year my health has declined and I would push myself to go to work...

    Problems Sleeping with Oxygen

    I had the same problem when I started using o2 at night too. I would wake up with a bad headache. I started using my flonase and then right before I go to bed I use a saline spray (over the counter) and that seemed to help a lot. As far as getting comfortable, it will take awhile but you'll get...
