@jennifer0726 ...You are soooo right about the oily teenage hair and healthier nails. I thought it was just me Jennifer!! I am so glad that you mentioned it. 😊
You mentioned your 30 GFR blood test. What is your creatinine running? And what is transplant saying about the cause of your 30 GFR...are they comfortable that things appear stable now that your norovirus and c diff resolved? They may be confident now that your infection is resolved. (I know you had a very hard time after that pizza delivery).

Hi @hello1234, my creatinine was 1.77 6/13, which was up from March, but very similar to when I went for my one year. When I went home one month after tx it was 2.10. So I have never had that great of numbers post tx, but no rejection at either of my biopsies at 4 and 12 months. The low numbers may contribute to my lower energy. On another note, I have a favorite author Laura Bradbury who had a living liver tx due to PSC who wrote a rom/com called An Unlikely Match. If you are a reader it is interesting and entertaining read. She has written memoirs and fiction. I thought it might be a fun summer read for those who might identify. I hope this is allowed to share on here! 😊
