Your doctor will only allow for a kidney transplant if you are very healthy for major surgery and can take lifelong medication. If the doctor recommends you for a kidney transplant, then you need to follow some procedures and need to be evaluated in the transplant center. In the evaluation, the doctors will run blood and urine test, if you pass the test, then they will conduct your transplant.
If you have a family member who is willing to donate the kidney, then the transplant can happen as soon as possible. Otherwise, you need to put your name on the list of Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN). They will decide your turn according to your condition and medical reports. It takes about 4 to 5 years to get your turn.
