Hi @caretakermom 😊
You have an excellent question regarding if the BK in urine will ever be resolved. My transplant nephrologist said that if the BK in the urine ever goes to negative, my immune suppression meds should be adjusted up. I assumed that BK in the urine would always be my "new normal". But my local nephrologist mentioned that BK in the urine is not completely benign. He said it can cause stenosis. So when I go for my annual visit with transplant next month, I am going to ask about it. I will definitely keep you posted.
And thank you for the scoop regarding your husband's TAC level and potassium foods. I am hoping that eating sweet potatoes has nothing to do with my latest increase in TAC level....They are my favorite!
Thanks again for always being there with good questions and good advice!
