Dizzy still after my liver transplant

@contentandwell Directly after transplant surgery I was visited by my hepatologist daily. Then weekly, then once a month and now every three months. I still have blood tests done every 2 weeks. I expect when I reach my 1 year mark in late November he will ask to see me every 6 months. I'm not sure when the yearly visits start after that.

@gaylea1 That’s different from my care, after transplant I was seen very regularly by the transplant department but after my hospital discharge I no longer saw my hepatologist. My hepatologist did visit me while I was in the hospital.
I’m not sure why a patient would continue to need to be seen by a hepatologist after transplant. What is the reason for that?
