@luckonetj, I really like your positive and persistent attitude! I am sorry that you caught the flu. Were you hospitalized?
Since my transplant I have realized that my body takes a longer time to recover from anything. This could be a bruise, a small cut, a cold, or even extra rest after a playdate with granddaughter. I have come to celebrate it as the new me. I listen to my own body because it lets me know if I am overdoing anything. This is just a thought that I wanted to share, maybe your immunosuppressed body is taking its own good time to fully recover.
Has your transplant team been doing any follow-up since the flu episode?

No I was not hospitalised for the flue. I stayed in bed for a day. The flue coincided with neuprogen injections to boost my WBC for a upcoming thorocyntethys procedure. I think the booster may have helped shorten the flue. Anyway had the pleurol effusion drained last week. Only 350 c.c this time down from over a liter. This time I was a bit more soar. The good new is that I Don't expect to have the Pleurodesis.
