Kidney donation: what are the risks?
Last updated on 27th April 2017
I recently wrote a blog post "Kidney donation: why it's well worth considering". I commented that most blog posts on this website are primarily written for fellow health professionals & others interested in an evidence-based approach to stress, health & wellbeing. However this sequence of posts about kidney donation are different in that they are written mainly for other potential kidney donors and their friends & families. I hope a personal story about a fellow donor's experience will be helpful, especially as my background in medicine & psychology may colour these posts usefully.
