Recurring infections post transplant!

Hi @eaa2025 😊
It is nice to meet you! I had my kidney transplant in 2020. I had CMV and BK. Has your husband's immune suppression dosage been reduced? Multiple infections can be an indication that he is over-suppressed and needs a reduction or change in immune suppression. Have the doctors discussed that with you?

Hello,
They have been lowering the dose, his last visit they took him completely off of myfortic, he is currently scheduled to have a WBC scan, so we're hoping they can figure out where the infection is coming from. His wbc count drops when he takes valcyte, so he was taken off of that this last hospital visit as well.
