Hi young man. I am not sure which part of the world you are mailing from. In India, the situation of possible unrelated transplant varies depending on the state. I practice in Karnataka, and it is very strict here (for the right reasons) and we don't do any unrelated transplants. I will be surprised if any nephrologist/ transplant team will agree to do the transplant openly in a public forum (even if they will be able to help you). You are better off making inquiries personally, and unfortunately I can be of very little help here. If you want to pursue related transplant, I will be able to help you. At Narayana Hrudayalaya we run one of the cheapest package (Rs 2.5 - 2.7 Lakh depending on whether you want general/ semi-private bed, plus about Rs70K for donor work up and laparoscopic neurectomy and additional 40K for possible induction immunosuppression if the HLA match is not good). Total cost at our center probably will work out between 3.5 - 4 Lakh which is very cheap. Most other centers that I know of charge upwards of Rs 6.5 Lakh. Regards and good luck.
