Good morning from Canada
I had my liver transplant in October 2020. I am currently experiencing a few of the symptoms that you have described. The only difference is that mine have started at the 4 1/2 years mark. I have been experiencing extreme bloating and fluid retention. No one seems concerned though. It's so bad that I can't do up my jeans anymore, last week I could! Joint pain in hands, elbows and ankles. As I like to say " It's hard being transplanted".

As a patient, many of us forget that WE are the customer and deserve proper treatment.

Keep asking, you deserve an answer and treatment options. Perhaps seek a second opinion from another facility.

The emotional aspect of receiving a transplant is often overlooked. I agree, "It's hard being transplanted".
