David Goodman commented on TransplantCafe.com's group Team Prograf"Dottie,
If your doc write BS/BS and specifies that you need prograf, not a generic med, they will back down. It's up to a doc to decide. All generic meds aren't the same as the name brand. At MGH they prefer prograf, although they said…"
Carlos commented on TransplantCafe.com's group Team Prograf"Hi Dottie, congratulations on your transplant. I have 10 years on my new liver this month. You have a new organ for only a few years. I would suggest you keep a spreadsheet of your labs as far back as you can so you can notice any…"

Darlene Tanner replied to Devra k's discussion Lung transplant in the group Lung Transplants"Hi Devra, I am Darlene & had a DLTx 3-3-11. So far no problems with lungs but I have gained 50 lbs since transplant. Finally they lowered prednisone this week to 2 1/2 mg once a day. I have had some kidney damage they are…"
Jan Ward commented on TransplantCafe.com's group Team Prograf"Hi Dottie:
Welcome from me as well. I'm three plus years out...I was on the prograf (as much as 30 mg a day) and others including immuran (as much as 150 a day) and prednisone for the first year or so...I'm now down to simply 1mg x 2…"
Laura posted a discussionHere we go again....and again!
So I had my first liver tx in 2005 (living donor) and had bile duct issues. I had a 2nd tx March 16th and have bile duct problems yet again and now I'm faced with needing a 3rd tx. Has anyone out there had 3 transplants? I've been stuck in hospital since March and the doctors want to send me home...even though I still require IV antibiotics and a VACC system. My family and I are quite nervous.
Bobbiejo Winfrey replied to Allie's discussion Hey! Could you help me! in the group Liver Transplants"Dear Allie,
I wanted to help as well, but I am no longer under 18. I do hope though that your project goes well and proves to be informative for you and those to whom you show it. If you do not mind me asking, are you graduating as an undergrad or…"
Bobbiejo Winfrey commented on TransplantCafe.com's group Team Prograf"Welcome Dottie! I had thought I would have been on more immunosuppressant than I am as I received six organs in my transplant, but I only take 2mg Prograf twice daily without a steroid. I was on the steroid Medrol in the very beginning but the…"
Matt Lawson commented on TransplantCafe.com's group Team Prograf"Hi Dottie - I'm a full, no-living-donor transplantee....I never heard of the bone marrow option....but then again I have heard someone who went to Taiwan for a liver and is on no meds and doing fine after 6 years. Whilst it might be feasible,…"
