Hi im glad your doing great, Today is 16 years for me, I just started Belatacept 2 weeks ago going for my second infusion tomorrow. Don't feel great with the change but I owe it to myself to try one more infusion. The Myfortic I take along with the infusion is making me feel dizzy with blurred vision. Hopefully my body will adjust.

I’m so sorry to hear this. Hopefully you can adjust to the Belatacept. The side effects from these drugs can be tough. Hang in there, you will figure it out.

@kidney091967, Congratulations on 16 years! Sorry that you've been experiencing dizziness and blurred vision since you started the Belatacept. Hopefully those side effects are temporary and will be resolved sooner rather than later. Were you switched from Tacrolimus to Belatacept? If so, why did your docs make the change? Wishing you well.
