I was lucky to have great insurance. Once I met my annual deductable of $750 everything was paid at 100%.

I had to pay travel and lodging costs.

Most of the transplant centers were very helpful and were eager to help.

@frayfl, I want to add my Welcome to Mayo Connect. I also want to say thank you for sharing your experience that will be helpful for others.
Congratulations on 6 years of new life with your transplant. I am 13 years post transplant (liver/kidney) from a deceased donor. I have a relative who will be getting her kidney as part of a chain next week! I can't wait to hear about her experience.
What have you enjoyed doing since the transplant?
