@stephanierp 😊 Hello and thank you for all your excellent comments and advice! I am so sorry to hear about your acute pancreatitis and hospitalization. On my last abdominal ultrasound it said that I had "sludge" in my gallbladder. That's the first time an ultrasound showed sludge iny gallbladder and I am concerned it may be precursor to gallstones, pancreatitis, etc. I never had any gallbladder problems before so I wonder if your pancreatitis and my "sludge" are just possible side effects of Tac. Anyway, I am very happy to hear you are better from your pancreatitis and are now on Cyclosporine...and your hair is doing 80-90% better!!
I noticed you are on Myfortic instead of Cellcept. Did you have an adverse reaction or problem with Cellcept? Or did you start on Myfortic?
Also, thank you for sharing that you go out to restaurants (and leave when crowded!). I am hopeful to be living your lifestyle in the near future. I am still spooked about covid, food borne illnesses, lots of tourists, and untrained kitchen help. What part of the country do you live? I live in Florida and our restaurants are always crowded with tourists during season.

I have always been on Myfortic, so I never had an adverse reaction to Cellcept.

I live in Indiana. I'm sure Florida restaurants are more crowded, though your weather is better, so outdoor dining is more of an option:) I think everyone has to take re-entry into restaurants and social situations at their own pace. You will know what you are ready for and when!
