My kidneys failed after liver transplant for PBC, I ended up with cirrhosis of the liver.
Thought my kidneys may pick up but they haven't so now I am waiting for a kidney transplant.

@janni1, I can't even imagine how you must have felt when you found out that you kidneys did not recover after your liver transplant as hoped. My kidneys did not respond to dialysis prior to transplant, so I had both organs at the same time. Are you currently on dialysis? or will you need dialysis? How does the listing/wait work, since you already have a transplanted liver?
Are you currently on the active kidney transplant list?

What questions do you have as you prepare?
