Kidney Failed!

My transplanted kidney failed over the holidays. I am now doing dialysis 3 times a week.  My kidney lasted 11 1/2 years, now I have to make some decisions. I am not sure what to do. I don't know whether to do home hemo, PD, or clinic hemo while I get myself back on the transplant list.See More
