I would recommend that you speak with your transplant doctor about your concerns. My peripheral neuropathy symptoms continued to get worse, after first developing tremors and numbness about two months after my transplant.

I was sent to a neurologist and a neuromuscular doctor. Liver disease and two autoimmune diseases contribute to my PN, however, the doctor believes that Tacrolimus, in my case, is a primary contributor. However, everyone’s experience with our medications are different.

I’m seeing my liver doctor in February to discuss switching to another immunosuppressant. I can’t take prednisone, so she has been reluctant to switch me off Tac. I’m going to also see a rheumatologist and neuromuscular doctor at my transplant hospital to try to better coordinate my treatment.
