Liver transplant - Let's support each other

The start of my concern only came up during pre-op blood tests for another situation- I have never been a drinker or drug user.

I am not yet on a transplant list-I am going for scans and blood tests every 60 days.-I am always exhausted, and never concerned about eating-not sure what else you want me to say about my situation-not sure if related, but my BP seems to be like a roller coaster every other day-and on daily BP medications.

Hi, @maw90455, and Welcome. By way of introduction I am a liver/kidney recipient, and I would like to thank you for your "Stay Healthy" message to everyone! I hope that thru your conversations and participation that you will learn along with other who are so generous to share their experiences.

Many patients with liver disease and transplants have a common bond thru our common connections with cirrhosis and multiple tests and scans.

I am eager to help you connect with others. Are you being considered for a transplant? Have you been diagnosed with NASH of NAFLD?

Welcome @maw90455, several members have or have had liver conditions such as cirrhosis, NASH and NAFLD and awating transplant. To help you connect easily with other members living with liver conditions and awaiting transplant and those who have received a liver transplant, I moved your post to this discussion:

@silvergirl36, I see that you have recently joined Mayo Connect, and I want to Welcome you. I am a liver and kidney transplant recipient and I love your online name! Do you have silver hair?
I notice that you have reached out to a member about sharing a transplant story. Here is a link to a discussion group where many members have already shared their stories.

Silvergirl, What brings you to Connect?

Can you tell us your story after receiving your transplant?
What were some of the things you experienced and how did you deal with them?

@sarah82, I want to invite you to this transplant discussion group.

Connect is a community of patients, and we do not interpret test results. Since you have recently been diagnosed with cirrhosis, this is a good place to meet others who have experienced a new diagnosis and can share experiences.
What is your diagnosis? What do you want to ask here?

Yes it is, direct admit to hospital 11/22 I had my monthly labs drawn the week b/f and my numbers were high. I am on high dose prednisone and they have increased my prograf and myfortic also.. what they want to do is a liver biopsy but I 🙏🏻 the increased meds r going to get me back on track.
Last labs numbers are still high so I will do another reck next week. I am not feeling as well as I was so I kinda knew something was up.
Thank u for checking on me💚❤️😊
I am staying positive all will be good.
