so that is what has ccaused the loss of sight in his left eye. he has been perscribed aspirin as well as warfarin, surgeons will be consulted to see if he needs to be removed from the transplant list again.

Nothing to add except a X. Let's hope the clot has caused only temporary damage.

My best wishes too. I know it doesn't really help - I hope everything turns out fine with his sight and here's hoping he stays on the list.

Misdee it might be like the clots that form in the dialysis tubes They sometimes happen if the tubes don't have enough heparin in them to keep the bloog thin.All the times I ever saw it happen it was resolved so am praying that will happen with Peter xx
