You cant tell until it comes to it I had a kidney transplant last year and only one kidney was usable. I was the better match - so the guy on the bed next to me had to be told sorry and had to go home

Also some kidneys can be problematic I passed on one where the donor might have been HIV+ - I had gone on the list prior to needing diyalsis so it wasn't like I needed one immediately.
