Lamar Odom Kidneys Failing Transplant On Table

While Lamar Odom may have made a miraculous recovery in some respects, his kidneys are now failing and may require a transplant, according to new information.

Sources close to the situation say that despite the fact Odom’s medical condition has vastly improved since overdosing in a Nevada house of ill repute, his kidneys are not improving and a transplant may be in order.

Lamar is at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A., and we’re told he will undergo 6 hours of dialysis a day, but the end game may well be a transplant. As for his move from Vegas to L.A., our sources say the main reason for the change is so Lamar can get better specialized care. His condition has improved, but the move is not a signal he’s out of the woods. h/t tmz

Doctors at Cedars have ordered brain tests, aimed at helping determine the extent of damage the strokes had on the former NBA star.
