@hello1234, we recently had a video appointment 8 month follow up. Transplant doctor is thinking about switching from Myfortic to Sirolimus. The reason for the switch comes down to my hubby's immune system is unable to fight the CMV given the current immuno suppressant medications. Doctor says multiple CMV recurrence(back to back) can cause the virus to be resistant to Valcyte. To avoid CMV resistance means having to switch up meds. Sirolimus has antiviral advantage, thus more suitable for hubby given that he has "hard to treat" CMV. Doctor wants to wait for 3-4 undetected CMV labs before making the meds changes. So far, we have had 2 undetected CMV lab results. He went over the common side effects which can lead to a host of other health issues!
At this point I'm worried about rejections because my hubby is only on Tacrolimus and prednisone. The sooner he gets on another more suitable immuno suppressant drug, the better! We can only hope Sirolimus works and does not cause any side effects!! Transplant doctor wants to meet again in 2 weeks. To say I'm worry is an understatement!! Hope this all makes sense.
