hello, @rosemarya
Thank you so much for your reply. My transplant was 1yr ago yesterday. I’ve had so many of the same reactions that you’ve described. The weight loss, worrying about a g-tube, the smell of meat. I can’t watch fast food commercials without having a gag reflex. Also, whatever I’m eating is dry and makes it harder to get down. Your reply made me feel much better. That it’s not in my head. I don’t remember telling the team about these reactions but my 1 yr visit is in 2 weeks and I will bring them up after getting your reply. Thank you again. I did pursue the problem with my hearing loss but it kind of felt like they thought I was a little crazy. However the tests did show loss which was sort of a two edge reaction. I felt better that I was validated but not that much better because I would be wearing hearing aids from then on. Life.
Have a very pleasant day @rosemarya. I was thrilled to see your reply.
