I am over 2 years post kidney transplant. Anxiety is new to me but I definitely have been experiencing it since transplant. Don’t know if it’s from the whole experience or the meds, nevertheless I try to deal with it by exercising, medication and prayers. The exercising is hard right now being the middle of winter so I am “anxious” for spring and be out and in the sunshine. I was on Presnisone on after transplant for a short time then for a 5 month span and now again and they say forever now (due to signs of rejection at 2 year biopsy, but now good). When I have been on prednisone I feel somewhat depressed, don’t sleep well, have bad dreams, brain fog, crabby and just don’t feel myself. I am really really struggling with the fact that this is how I am going to feel from now on ☹️. When I have not been on it I feel pretty good.
Any body else feel this way on prednison? and after some time does your body adjust and you feel better?
Thanks!
