I had a liver transplant 9/2013 at Mayo. Would be willing to share my experiences with others. I am doing well presently and working as an RN part time.

@sue6175, Welcome to Mayo Connect. I always consider it an honor to meet fellow transplant recipient. I look forward to hearing more about your experience. On Connect, we, the patients are able to support and encourage others who are like ourselves.

I received my liver and kidney transplant at Mayo Rochester in 2009 for PSC (Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis). I joined Connect because I wanted to meet others who were organ transplant recipients. I have not been disappointed because I have gained much information and inspiration everyone who has entered any of our transplant discussion groups.

@sue6175, How did you learn that you needed a transplant? What was it like for you with an RN background?

What challenges did you experience with post-transplant meds and how did you overcome the problems you experienced? And how's your husband doing LOL?
