After that I had second operation to clear the doubt removing tissues from nodules and it was found cancer negative. I had clinic test continuously one year and after one year dr adivised me to take all test, lastly due to throid problem the lump found in my brest. So now I am taking thyroxin 100 mg alongwith calcium and iron ( due to low hemoglobin) tablets. Last year I had taken memography test and it is found normal study.  am having one daughter she is studying 9th std.  Now my question is my brother is suffering from kidney problem. In this case my blood group and his blood is O positive. Can I donot my kidney to my brother. He is requesting me to donot the same. What will be consequences if I donot kidney. My mother died due to kidney failure. She had diabieties and PB. Please suggest me. Doctor: Hi,Thanks for writing in.There are organ transplantation guidelines which regulate organ donation. Kidney donor is assessed medically and only if found fit then only donation is possible. Your malignancy in breast is controversial and a clearance has to be obtained from a pathologist in a cancer institute stating that your breast condition was normal and now you do not have any sign of suspicious disease.Please make a request to the organ transplantation board to consider your ability to donate a kidney to your brother after following recommended test procedures. HLA typing has to be done and matched. Please do not worry.
