@nanmargaret,
I just returned home from Mayo in Rochester for my annual checkup. So I'm a bit late in responding. I hope that you will soon get relief from your side effects, and begin to return to a more active lifestyle that you had previously enjoyed.
I am a liver and kidney recipient, and my own experience does not include the questions that you have presented. And so, I'm sharing a link to a discussion that might giver you a place that might reach a bigger audience of heart transplant members. Please don't be deceived by the title because these patients are sharing their 'post transplant experiences. I invite you to take a look, read, and to ask your question about antibody-mediated rejection and Belatacept

@nanmargaret, When will you be in contact with your doctor again? And when will he make the decision about the medication change?

Hello again, @rosemarya. Thanks so much for directing me to the heart transplant link! I will check it out and post there.
My cardiologist is planning to begin my first infusion of Belatacept on June 4 if all goes well with some testing. I will be speaking to my coordinator early next week to get a better understanding of what to expect.
I hope your checkup went well.
