@cheitmansd, Congratulations on your recent liver and kidney transplant! I am also a liver and kidney transplant recipient and received my transplant at Mayo Clinic. Mine was in 2009 at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Which Mayo Clinic were you for your transplant?

I was on dialysis prior to transplant. My kidneys failed suddenly as a result of my liver. And so my diet was resticted before transplant. Immediately after the transplant surgery, my sense of taste returned and I enjoyed food again. However, there are some things that I no longer want to eat or to prepare. Spicey foods, fried foods because of gall bladder removal with liver transplant, and pork are some things that I no longer want to eat.
You mentioned feeling spacey. That is something that I also experience. Over my 15 years it seems to be bothersome when my tacrolimus trough level is too high and needs adjystment. Currently, you are on high doses of all your meds, and your body is still recovering so I would expect that you will be noticing improvement over time. It is important to keep your transplant nurse informed of any changes that concern you - now and throughout your new life.
How are you getting along with recovery? What are some things that you are enjoying since the surgery? Do you have any questions? I would love to hear more about your experience.
