Transplant waiting time with live donor

Posted by dhrubasen @dhrubasen, 4 days ago

I am reading that with a live donor, everything (transplant etc) gets done in 3-5 months. I have a live donor - 8 months have passed but not a single test has been done with him - even just to check if his kidney is healthy enough to be donated. When he asks why - he is told that the transplant team waiting on some tests on me.

Sounds very poor management.

Can anyone throw light as to what is going on ?

Thank you for your feedback. Will connect through private message function, Could you please review the best way to do this? I am very empathetic for everyone anxiously awaiting a kidney transplant. I thought that by sharing hospital information, we might be able to ascertain informed next steps if this seems to be a problem with one particular hospital. Hope to connect with this person and really hope we are both just facing fixable situations.
