When you get a kidney transplant, a healthy kidney is placed inside your body to do the work your own kidneys can no longer do.<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]You must be healthy enough to have the operation.\u00a0 We will refer you for a full medical and psychosocial evaluation which is done with the transplant team at a transplant center. On the plus side, there are fewer limits on what you can eat and drink, but you should follow a heart-healthy diet. Your overall health and energy should improve.\u00a0 In some cases, a successful kidney transplant may allow you to live the kind of life you were living before you got kidney disease. Studies show that people with kidney transplants live longer than those who remain on dialysis.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ offset=”vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][vc_single_image image=”2059″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md”][vc_single_image image=”2059″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
