water retention

mrmdip

hi everyone just wanna start off the conversation with i just received my kidney last friday its was a perfect match . has anyone that ever had a kidney transplant when u first got it you didn't pee as much and retained water just curious. my doctor says once kidney level improves that i should be peeing lots more and the water retention should balance out. they didnt wanna give me lasix because fear of low blood pressure just curious if other kidney transplant patients had this .

Hello, yes, when I received my Kidney transplant it took a while before the Kidney level improved. As for peeing, the next day I urinate a lot.

I got my kidney transplants last year in july. I went through the same thing. They gave me the same thing for peeing.
