Hello !
I saw this post and it made me think. Shortly after my Kidney and Liver transplant 2 years ago i started having night sweats. My clothes would be damp the next morning. I never thought it was linked to meds. I use to be anemic for the most part of my life and it felt nice not getting cold easily but the sweating was not fun. I don;t think i ever questioned the sweats, i thought it was the weight gain after surgery. I am also on tacrolimus and Mycophenolate twice a day.

I had a kidney transplant 6 months ago (01/23) and I am having horrible sweats mainly at night but also throughout the day. Is this here to stay? I am also on ENVARSUS XR, Mycophenolate (2x day)

Good morning

I too have experienced hot flashes, night sweats and nightmares as well as weird dreams since my liver transplant in 2020. It's comforting to hear other people are experiencing these and it's "not just me" I really appreciate these groups and have discovered so much support here. Thank you to everyone 🥰

Hi @mh75
I will be 3 years and the sweats are still going strong. As hard as it may be to believe prior to this second surgery I didn’t sweat much. Immediately after this changed. I had to learn to wear less clothing in the winter because sweat would drop from my back. The same in the summer. I am also on Mycophenolate. I’ve learned to adapt. Less clothes at night and a ceiling fan helps.

I’m at five years post transplant. I’m still having sweats day and night. I don’t know if my BP meds are contributing to them. I usually take a drink of cold water for relief.
