Hi @mariags 😊
It's so good to hear from you! Remember, your son's transplant is very new at the 4 month mark so it's not unusual to see some out of whack numbers.
Your son's recent biopsy should give you great comfort that there was no sign of infection or rejection.
Low levels of CMV virus can be easily resolved so don't panic waiting for the results.
What creatinine level did your husband have right before donating the kidney?
What was the lowest creatinine number that your son has had since the transplant?

Thank you for your words of comfort. we are doing a CT scan tomorrow.
I will keep you posted. my sons mental health is just spiraling now... he believes he will be on dialysis in 6 months! his mind is in a dark place right now. we are trying to give him his space but also support him. we are a strong family.

my husbands creatinine pre tranplant was 108. on march 23 it was 158.

for my son, lowest creatinie post tranplant was 151 and that was one month post tranplant! since then it just has been steadily rising.... yesterday was at 194.

any words are greatly appreciated.
thank you.
