@gaylea1 I was originally listed lower than that, and it took about 15 or 16 months before I had my transplant at 28. At that point I was due for an increase in another week. Isn't there an automatic increase every 3 months?
Which region are you in? Do you know what the is average is for transplant in your region?

@contentandwell I am not in a region. I live in London Ontario Canada. My doctors and transplant coordinator told me I am in the right range. For some reason my size and blood type are holding me back. I am petite and apparently most livers are too large for me. I'm not sure what truth lies in that but that's what I was told. I've been 29 since June and my MELD is remaining the same. It took me 12 months to move from 25 to 29.
