1st Pregnancy
1st Pregnancy
I was
so exciting to see 2 lines on the pregnancy test. TO make sure, I do another test and the
results are the same.
It is
quite exactly as our plan. When we decide to have a family and to a new member
add to our family. Our baby is the most favorite for every couple. We have been
married for a year and my transplanted kidney is working excellent. My Creatinine is in the
good range. My condition is stable.
I have
consulted with my renal consultant and I receive the green light to go for it.
However, I have not known any transplant woman in our hospital have a baby after kidney transplant at all. I asked my renal consultants, but have not got any answers. It
may be they want privacy or nobody wants to talk about it. As we all know only
one kidney to save our life in order for us to live normally still hard, don’t
you dare to think about support another person’s life.
I try
to search the internet, read some research about pregnancy in kidney transplant.
However, I cannot find anything really relate to the topic, I am looking for.
It may be because a number of women have a transplant is less or a number of women who at the age of
productive is less or transplant woman who at the age of able to produce and be
healthy enough to try for a baby is less or whatever. As we always know that
most of kidney end stage failure before transplant, some develop from diabetic before progressing to kidney failure. Also,
it can go in another direction of having a kidney disease first and progress to others.

Change of Medication
Change of Medication
The
process to be ready for pregnancy, the suppress
immunization medication has to be safe for baby. Therefore, the period of the recent
change type of medicine over, I have to see the renal consultants to check my Creatinine and other
kidney function whether it is responding well to the new medication.
This
will take about 6 months. In the beginning I will go to the clinic every two weeks, a month, two months and three
months. I have to wait the renal consultants are happy with my kidney function with new blood and overall health check
results before they can give me a green light to go ahead for the baby plan.

Transplant Procedure
The Transplant Procedure
The transplant receives a kidney from a living donor, this will be a carefully
planned operation.
A kidney transplant is a major surgical procedure with a wide
range of potential risks. In the short term, these
risks include blood clots and infection. Longer term problems, which
include diabetes and an increased risk of infections, are usually related to
the immunosuppressant medication that needs to be taken continuously
to reduce the chance of rejection.
I would then have surgery to insert the new kidney and connect it to my blood vessels and
bladder. The new kidney will be placed in the lower part of my abdomen
(tummy). My own kidneys will be left in place.
Because of the risk of further
problems, people who have had a kidney transplant require regular checkups for the rest of their
life. Ater 14 years, I have a routine checkup every 6 months.

Kidney transplant matching Process
Kidney Transplant Matching Process
My sister and I have lived
together for 6 months while she has to do exercise and look after me while I
was on dialysis.
Unlike many other types of
organ donation, it is possible to donate a
kidney while you are alive because you only need one
kidney to survive. This is known as a living
donation.
People who want to be
considered as a kidney donor are tested very carefully to ensure they
are a suitable donor and are fit for the operation needed to remove a kidney.
Ideally, living donations will come from a close relative because they
are more likely to share the same tissue type and blood group as the recipient,
which reduces the risk of the body rejecting the kidney. However, donations from
those who are not blood relatives are sometimes possible.
Kidney donations are also
possible for people who have recently died. This is known as deceased kidney donation. However, this type of kidney
donation has a slightly lower chance of long-term successes on dialysis.

My option to live is Kidney Transplant
Kidney Transplant Option
With my family support, kidney transplant is my option.
Most people who need a kidney transplant are able to have one, regardless of their age,
as long as they are well enough to withstand the effects of surgery. The transplant has a relatively good chance of success
The person is willing to
comply with the recommended treatments required after the transplant – such as taking immunosuppressant medication and attending regular follow-up
appointments.
Reasons why it may not be safe
or effective to perform a transplant include having an ongoing infection (this will need to be treated first), heart
disease, liver failure, cancer that has spread to
several places in your body (metastatic cancer), and AIDS (the final and most
serious stage of an HIV infection).
However, people who have HIV that is being effectively controlled with
medication can often have a kidney transplant.
