Dear all,

I’m sorry that I’ve not been on here for a while!

I’ve been having a torrid time!!!!

My transplant on August 10th and initial recovery went really well but I am just coming to the end of my third admission to hospital and this one was dreadful. So many complications including Kidney issues!!!!

But I am now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel 😊❤️

Tablets and infections are more settled 😊

So home on Monday, hopefully and stay at home this time hoping to get stronger each day xx

Love to you all xxxx ❤️

Goodness Lynn what an awful time you've been having post transplant. I'm keeping everything crossed for you..... I'm pleased that you can now see that light at the end of the tunnel. If you put 'Caspiana' in the search bar you'll be able to read all her post transplant, recovery, hospital admissions and anti rejection drugs history. Dear Cas has helped us all understand the process and scaryness involved. Love to you along with healing vibes sent your way, im sure its baby steps for a while.

Hi Lynne, you really have been through the wars, bless you!Having transplant discussions now with the docs who have told me i could be an ideal candidate due to age, height and weight etc...

They are organising the necessary preliminary tests so i wait, with interest.

Isn’t the internet a wonderful information tool which has helped me immensely with research and reassurance when i watch some of the amazing real life stories from recovering patients.

One major concern is obviously future infections due to the immunosuppressants drugs we have to take forever.

This will obviously involve major lifestyle changes but i expect post Covid we will all have to make changes.

Anyway, you stay safe and i look forward to hearing of better and brighter news your end.
