Numerous factors affect a kidney transplant's long-term success. Consult your transplant team frequently and heed their instructions. To prevent your body from rejecting your new kidney, take your anti-rejection medications as prescribed by the transplant team, regularly, at the appropriate doses. To ensure that your kidney is functioning properly, make sure you adhere to the suggested timetable for lab testing and clinic appointments. Adopt a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, a balanced diet, and weight loss if necessary. No matter how well you feel or whether you believe your transplanted kidney is functioning properly, you should never stop taking your anti-rejection medicine. Rejecting them will happen if you stop or ignore them. Early diagnosis of kidney rejection is challenging. Once rejection begins, it is frequently irreversible and leads to the transplanted kidney's loss.
