after kidney transplant, with proper food habits, how long a person can survive?
Answers:
Proper food habits are important, but keeping up with regular medical care is just as important. But if you have a successful transplant, you can live pretty much a normal lifespan. I can't give you a number of years, because (obviously) a 60-year old who gets a new kidney will not live as long as a 20-year old with a new kidney. Good luck!!
well,as long as the kidney is compatible with the patient,he/she shld live a long splendid life.but then again,infections do occur and organ rejection.so in the end,only baghwan can save all, hai na?
may be 15 years
It depends on the condition of the kidney implanted. Sometimes if you take water with high TDS the kidney may give way soon. All things remaining good, the kidney can sustain to your life span.
Typically, living donor transplants last longer than cadaveric transplants. The average life of a cadaveric kidney is about 12 years while a transplant from a living donor is about 22 years. There are exceptions, of course, and a rejection can happen without apparent cause, even if the patient is taking their immunosuppressant meds and taking good care of their health.
Some patients will require multiple transplants throughout their life. My daughter is 20 and waiting for a transplant. Here's her story if you are interested - http://www.xanga.com/i_korn.
