I’m 8 mos out from transplant. Shortly after transplant, one or two wks, I had acute rejection. I was given steroid infusion for about 5 days. It solved the problem and my creatinine levels have been right on since then. I was told the cause was that they misjudged how much immunosuppressants I needed. People my age usually have lower immune systems and can get by with lower levels of immunosuppressants. I’m in the 17% who don’t.
Wishing your husband good results.🙏🏻

Thanks, he had the infusions as well a few weeks out. But now at 6 mos. out, they are trying other things. His function went from 40% to 20% in 6 weeks...so we are sure hoping for a turnaround soon.

@cmael That's wonderful that they were able to fix things so quickly. Obviously, things are humming along great for you now. You can breathe a big sigh of relief.
