Had my 6 mo.visit to Mayo...up a Meld point to 7....dont laugh...lol
Maybe some day I will be sick enough to get listed. They did find test
results indicating auto immune hep..so that will change things a bit.
I have subtle changes that they have alerted me won't go away or get
better. So...I will read and write and carry on about my life as normally
as I can...

@jeanne5009 With such a low MELD what symptoms do you have, and how was it caught so early? Maybe if you are lucky it will never get to the point where you do need a transplant. The mother of a woman I know had cirrhosis for 10 years and was fine with it.
You mention the shingles shot in a different post. The reason I am not supposed to get it has something to do with my immunosuppressants and of course you are not on them yet. I know that Mayo says it's OK to get post-transplant but MGH, my transplant center, is still being very cautious.
