@athenalee, I would like to congratulate you too on your recent liver transplant. I had my liver transplant in Dec of 2019 here in Jacksonville. Where did you have yours?

I had mine at Lahey Hospital and Medical Center. Their team approach is excellent. I was in the hospital for a month and a week due to a reaction to prednisone and had to be sent home on a dreadful feeding tube to get more protein in me.

How is your recovery going? Are you home and able to get around some? Take your drugs as directed! I’ve done lots of research on when and how to take the anti rejection meds and what other meds and herbs, such as echinacea, interfere with the metabolism of our anti rejection meds. Until my disease I had only taken natural supplements and homeopathics, So, it’s been a tough adjustment!
