@wildcat, Keep on doing what you have been doing. It is perfect.
I am sorry to mislead you, but your response about donor letter and policy was just so relevant for recipients that I wanted be sure it stood out!
I am 10 years post transplant, and I do mine every 3 months. I had them drawn this morning! I do mine locally and they faxed to Mayo, where I transplanted. I also have a prograf lab kit that is mailed to Mayo to monitir my prograf(tacrolimus) levels. I will get a notification from my nurse coordinator ic I need to make any dosage adjustments. But they have been stable for the past 4-5 years. That was not the way it was in the beginning, though.
Now that you are 5 years post transplant, how often do you get your labs drawn? can you do it locally?
