Hi Rosemary!
I am aware and coping with the magnesium toots. =) I am now on the search for a psychiatrist to help my therapist with the mental aspects of being a recipient. Physically, my knees still have issues, but as far as the ever changing spring weather, in easten nebraska it has been -37 in the evenings, followed by 50s the next week.
I am just trying to stay grounded. Blessed and protective, not a germophobe, but aware.

@lauraloo81,
I really like what you said: that you are trying to stay grounded. and being blessed and protective. I believe that is is possible and even healthy to get out and about-with precautions. Is the therapy for your knee? I would imagine that it might be difficult to find a psychiatrist who has experience with post transplant mental health issues if you are not near a big city. Have you asked whether your transplant team can provide any guidance?
I hope that spring comes soon for you! Today my daffodils are covered with snow. Fortunately, I thought to bring some inside last evening so I can enjoy them. I shared this pic with my brother in Georgia this morning, we call them Dad's Heirloom Daffodils - and we smile because we remember how these grew on our grandpa's property, then my dad's yard, and now each of us keeps a patch, and each spring, enjoy memories. But they are much prettier outside!
Do you have any plans for spring? Will your knees permit you to walk or tend a garden?

Hi @lauraloo81 Just popping in here briefly. Magnesium toots. I know the feeling! Mine stopped when I switched Magnesium supplements to one a little easier on the system. Have you tried Magnesium Glycinate?
