@abider, Good Morning and Welcome from another Mayo Liver transplant recipient! I am happy to meet you here on Connect and I am interested in your participation in the clinical trial.
My transplant is actually a simultaneous liver and kidney transplant from an annonymous deceased donor at May Rochester in 2009 as a result of PSC. My immunosuppressant medications (Mycophenolate and Tacrolimus) have been working well for me now for 15 years with minor dosage adjustments that are guided by my labs and occasional increase of side effects.
While I was reading about your clinical study and your desire to reduce your tacrolimus, I am curious as to why or how you became involved in this study. Did you initiate this or did your transplant team refer you? Were you having bothersome side effects or are you looking to the future possibilities? Might I ask if you have any co-existing condition that would benefit from the potential switch? I look forwar5d to heating more of your experience with liver transplant.
