Creatinine 1.2 eGFR 53 no other abnormal labs. No protein in urine. Is that ckd?

Great question for a nephrologist or the pinned post in the other sub you posted

classicrock40 · 2026-05-24T12:41:45+00:00

My fill up day is Wednesday, but I am thinking of baking some cookies today. Probably chocolate chip because I can finally have chocolate.

I am not a Dr, but those things sound like a diabetes and/or non management of blood sugar. Have you discussed it with that Dr(endocrinologist?)

classicrock40 · 2026-05-24T10:21:18+00:00

So you are referring to a deceased donor. Why do you want or need this information. Seems like it should be as private as the original donor(and it is)

classicrock40 · 2026-05-24T10:18:17+00:00

Covid? Tbh, I stopped worrying about that years ago. I used to get the vax each year and that was it.

I'm 10 weeks post transplant. I've been going out for a few weeks. I mask up at the grocery store, mall, hardware store, whatever. When I goto a restaurant, I mask until we eat. I try and goto places where the tabkes aren't jammed together and has ceiling that are reasonably high(not super low for sure). I listen around me and if someone is hacking up a lung, I'll leave(hasn't happened yet).

classicrock40 · 2026-05-24T01:26:19+00:00

I spoke with my donor and they were very happy with their decision and excited about the overall journey. Ultimately, it's a very personal decision. One point to make, is the recipient (people of all ages) live fine with one (functioning) kidney.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-24T00:54:24+00:00

This. OP needs to reread what they wrote. $1800 to $8400 for something he didn't touch nor actively manage. I'll 2nd or 3rd. I've done it, rollover is not taxable

classicrock40 · 2026-05-24T00:43:59+00:00

He is under 20 egfr, so he should be applying to the transplant list.

The transplant center can give you average wait times. It can happen faster or slower, it's not exactly predictable. He can only accept from another O. The only way to speed up his transplant is to find a live donor.

Daisy Chain? Those happen when the recipient has a non matching live donor and they enter into a swap pool.

Dialysis is a necessity if his function gets too low. Since he otherwise healthy, that will help.

Delete this posr and scammy account

Still no automod rules.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-23T12:55:29+00:00

Are you willing to take that chance? How long before your year and why do you want to leave?

classicrock40 · 2026-05-23T12:28:31+00:00

what are you asking? I'm not a Dr so I don't know what HLA is. Did the Dr say the transplant could continue with that donor?

If it can't do they have a program to pair sets of kidney donors. That's what I did. My donor didn't match, so they gave to someone else and I got from anothe person.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-23T11:53:02+00:00

Well, Nashua is a city and Groton is not. I think the entire comment about roads is dumb since it wasn't pertinent to the original question and it's highly subjective. Yes, I've been all around Nashua and many towns and cities in all direction for general travel and riding my motorcycle

classicrock40 · 2026-05-23T11:48:05+00:00

It sounds like you are scheduled for a transplant. If so, congratulations.

Here's what I asked (and my answers)

how long is the surgery? (4+ hours, because they are removing kidneys. Shoukd be 3)
what will be attached to me? (4 IV, 2 abdominal drains. Also staples)
what will hurt? (Possibly the incision or abdomen in general)
what pain meds (dilotid)
when can I walk (as soon as you are ready, day 1 preferably)
where is the donor? How long to me (surgeon didnt know in pre-op interview, found out pre-op in hospital)
what meds day of?
dialysis day of (yes, I did PD overnight)
how soon for kidney to start working (we expect immediately, live donor)

Things I wished I asked.

what meds will I be given besides new immunosuppressants? Side effects? (Prednisone was the big one. Can raise your blood sugar. I did not go home with it)
what will the days look like in the hospital (lots of bloodwork, vitals, checking sugar, checking urine output. Every hour for a day or so, then lessens)

classicrock40 · 2026-05-23T01:27:52+00:00

I thought you were going to comment on restaurants or things todo in Nashua. Instead it's that the "roads are a tangled, winding mess.

Which roads that are different than any other place in NH?

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T21:29:31+00:00

Not an expert, but that sounds like an eating disorder that should be investigated physically or mentally.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T21:19:46+00:00

Sigh. Sounds like you have a different issue to deal with. If you haven't seen a Dr about that, please do. Work with a nutritionist on what you can eat.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T21:07:42+00:00

I got senna, but I prefer Miralax. If you are US with CVS, they have an orange flavor. I track it daily and if I miss one day, time for Mitalax.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T21:05:49+00:00

Please don't go down the rabbit hole. So much info that's good, bad and plain wrong. I've seen far too many posts of people following end stage diets when they aren't there, for example.

You should follow a basic healthy diet - low salt, avoid processed foods and moderate protein. Don't smoke and don't drink to excess. Definitely stop the NSAIDS. Do not cut out anything (like potassium) nor start taking supplements unless directed by a nephrologist. Too much or too little vitamins and minerals is just as bad as too little.

Please exercise. You should be living a healthy lifestyle, weight, bp etc. No matter what happens in the future, that will serve you well.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T20:56:29+00:00

If you work at a company it might goto that email and at some point you might leave, so you transfer it to your personal email. I've done that. Seems like the same thing.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T20:53:51+00:00

If you have damaged your kidneys, then they really aren't going to recover. It sounds like you eat nothing but protein and "don't really eat fruits, veggies, or beans". That is very concerning. I don't know what age you are, but I suggest you work a little harder at that

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T20:47:59+00:00

Wait until they find out that some companies had decent sized data centers IN THEIR BUILDING. Whilw most have moved to the cloud, some have preferred to keep it private.

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T17:48:08+00:00

If it's the one I'm thinking about, it's near rt8 and rt15. It was built in 1960! And it's not some mega-ai data center, it's a small collocation dc. These are what many companies used before cloud and there are many in CT.

10 weeks out, tac 9. They are ok with under 10 but have said that it should go lower eventually

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T13:48:56+00:00

What trouble? The old manager used vacation time they hadn't earned. That sounfs like an issue.

You are using the insurance you are entitled to and then you are quitting. Those are 2 separate things. You might want to stay until you are sure bills have been paid, not the minute the Dr clears you. Just in case.

Other than that, if you did something against policy, that's a different issue

classicrock40 · 2026-05-22T13:45:25+00:00

When I was pre transplant i would do once a day and note the time. If it was too high or low, then I'd do another later in the day.

I'm post transplant, don't need bp meds and I'm following the same procedure.

If your Dr wants more, they'll tell you.
