My TAC levels have been as low as 3 and as high as 11. Based on my height and weight my desirable level is 6. I now have draws every two months instead of monthly, my last draw was 6. So dead on!!!! I don't think people really realize just how hard it is to be a transplant patient.

@footballmum 😊
I agree with you that most people don't understand that a transplant patient has a lot to deal with after the transplant to get our meds "just right". Congratulations on your perfect SIX! What dosage and medication name do you take to achieve your perfect Tacrolimis 6.0? I take 6mg long-acting Envarsus XR and I usually achieve a Tac blood level of 5 to 7. I think it varies so much because I take my pills with breakfast. (It sounds like you eat breakfast too!)
