Welcome to the Kidney/Pancreas Transplant Recipients List (kptx).
The focus of this list is to provide support, to encourage, and provide information for Pancreas and/or Kidney Transplant Recipients, and those who are interested in P/K Transplants.


Please change the subject line if you do change the subject, it helps to have a subject line that people can easily determine some of the content.


Our first rule is to treat everyone on this list with respect, kindness, and understanding. Next, the topics of religion, and politics be avoided, as we have many members of different faiths and political outlooks, and such discussions are offensive to some. While we presently approve valid subscription requests , the list moderator(s) also known as the list owner(s) (Ned, Barry W, Bob H, and Brian S.) reserve the right to unsubscribe or take other action limiting a members access to the KPTX List.

Of course, the obvious applies, do not give or expect to receive medical advice, always consult your medical professionals or transplant team about information discussed on this list as to how it may apply to YOUR case..


If you are new to the list, you might take this opportunity to introduce yourself to the others. Let us know where and when you received your transplant, (or if you're waiting for one), what part of the country you reside, how you're doing, etc. Messages can be posted to the group by emailing to: kptx@yahoogroups.com, or following the link "Messages" on the left hand side of this page.
