I received a transplant from my sister in 1990 and I drink way more than I should. Sometimes like two bottles of white wine or more. It’s been 33 years and the worst part is borne raised in Phx with skin cancer. My creatinine is stable at 1.01 so that nephrology condition does not affect me so much except for the skin cancer type stuff

@bdaniels3434 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.

Congratulations on the transplant you received so many years ago! You've done your sister proud, and wow! can you imagine how procedures have changed over those 30 years!

Do you continue to take anti-rejection medications? It has been proven that those of us with a lower immune system are more prone to skin cancers. Everyday use of sunscreen and being careful of exposure can go a long way to help avoiding problems. Of course, our genetics play a part, plus lifestyle, and definitely living in the southwest.
