Good morning!!!! My apologies for a delayed response. I am now taking 250 Cellcept in the morning and evening along with the Tac . I was previously on 500 in the a.m. and p..m. I went for my MRI but wasn't able to complete. My claustrophobia got the best of me and I had to be pulled out of the machine. This had never happened to me in the past but I know that I am really a different person since my liver transplant in June. I have been rescheduled for mid September with IV sedation

I am so happy that you are feeling well!!!! That is awesome!

I am just feeling ok. I sure do run out of energy quick and have quite a bit of nausea in addition to excessive itching. I know in time this will get better. I am able to do so much more for myself and around the house which is a blessing.

Please refresh my memory. When did you have your transplant?

Hi @crystalfaye 😊
(I am a two year post kidney transplant).
Regarding your MRI, I know how you feel about the claustrophobia. During my last MRI , I was on my last nerve too. I hadn't remembered the banging noise level to be as loud as it was. There was no way to distract yourself with the music in the earphones because of all the jackhammer banging. Horrible. It's a shame you have to go back. Isn't there a way they can check the bile ducts using ultrasound or Cat scan instead of MRI with sedation?

Hang in there, @crystalfaye. Your positive attitude is admirable and we are with you 100% ❤️
