Hi @roxanne12345 😊
I have a similar story. I had CMV in my first year and then BK in my second year.
I assume that you are taking TAC or something with your Prednisone? What is your current increased dosage of Prednisone? After one year, is your BK viral load under 1000 in the blood? I found that my BK viral load really bounced around a lot until it came down. I am currently down at 65 BK viral load in the blood and 400,000 in the unit which is much better.
Which side effects are you experiencing with Prednisone?

I am not on prednisone just tac and mic. I was on prednisone taper the first month. I am really hoping to avoid the infections but from what I’ve read I’m pretty high risk for it. One day at a time and trust God is what I strive to do but sometimes my anxiety creeps in.
