Hi @katgob, Not to worry about taking those few meds you’re on post transplant. You’ll be able to stop the acyclovir and Bactrim when you’ve had your vaccinations. They’re still protecting you from shingles (acyclovir) and lung infections. I had a few gvhd issues delayed my stopping the tacro and was on a low dose for 2.5 years. Consequently, i was also taking valacyclovir, bactrim, penicillin, pozaconazole, ursodial, protonix, and magnesium. Not an issue at all. Now I’m back to an empty medicine cabinet. ☺️
I really do feel energized, like I’m in my 20s, considering I recently turned 70. Having the immune system of a 20 year old seemed to have given me the fountain of youth! LOL. He was 20 at the time of transplant. Now we’ve both matured another 5 years. Of course, it was one heckuva medical odyssey to get to this point.
