Today is my 1yr anniversary. My family and I are thrilled because 10months ago I was still in the hospital recovering. I am blessed yet not a day goes by that I dont think of my tx or my donor. I am still dealing with serious strength issues and constant pain issues. I have been recieving a stint every 3mo and go mid jan for a third(they r goin for 5 because of a faulty bile duct full of scar tissue) Is there anyone who feels the survivor guilt this far in or am I being hard on myself?

I wish you had been more specific about some of the complications you've had to struggle with but I understand the feelings of isolation you describe. There are many liver transplant recipients that are members here and the best way to share in that collective knowledge is to join this forum that focuses on liver transplantation:
http://www.transplantfriends.com/group/transplantfriends

You can change your account settings to alert you by email when a comment is posted in this forum and any other group or forum that you have an interest in joining. There are also some live chat sessions that take place on weekends. I hope you will no longer feel like you're different or set apart from other transplant recipients. We all share in each other's journey here, the good and the bad.
