Hi! The myfortic ( same effects but different from cellcept is the one reduced to 4x 180 mg/ day.
Re the 2 year protocol biopsy, very recent blood tests show no sign of infection so that decision is optional and will be discussed w local nephrologist ( Las Vegas).
The symptoms of BK were negligible, but showed up in the bloodwork. I assume you, too, see a vampire monthly?
The Vegas heat is very wearing in combination with AC, but spirits are high! Best Wishes!

Hi @tasher3433 😊 I totally understand your Las Vegas HEAT! I am writing to you from sunny HOT South Florida where the "feels like" temperature is 103 today....thank goodness for air conditioning! I am happy to hear there is no more sign of infection and it was "nipped in the bud" with less immune suppression! Happily, the same is true with my CMV. Was Cellcept replaced with Myfortic due to tummy issues or was the original medication Myfortic? Is it helping any stomach issues?
And yes, I definitely visit the "VAMPIRE" on a regular basis! I like that expression, very cute! I think I am going to start to use that expression too. 😊
