Yes waiting list : Has to wait till donor is available from the waiting list just like lost time, unless family member willing to donate the kidney, then it can be done soon, speak to the transplantation team.

Depends on wait list: After removal of an allograft i usually keep patients in the inactive list for 6 weeks or until they have recovered from the surgery. The real issues is whether or not he will have to accrue more wait time since he was transplanted for a month already. You should take to the transplant team about this.
