Thank you @l0lag0lag0b3 😊
Under your new nephrologist, are you testing for CMV and BK annually or every six months? I would like to test every month since a delay in identifying these viruses has such huge consequences. I felt sick with CMV, so that is how I was diagnosed with CMV. But BK was just a routine test that found it. I had very high levels of BK in the urine and lower in the blood. It's been almost six months and I still have it. When I finally clear it, I will want to test often!

I have BK test every two to three weeks. It’s not going down much, as my white count is so low. I’m not taking any MMF at this time, but take more prednisone and a small amount of Tacrolimus.
