Do you know the figures for your Creatinine and do you know your GFR kidney function flow rate. Are you drinking anything like fizzy drinks or caffeine that might dehydrate you, is there any salt in your diet?

Another person on here, Kimberley, who has recently had a liver transplant, was taken back into hospital when her creatinine was out of range but lower than yours.

I think you need to get your doctors advice or speak to whoever prescribed the prograf to check your kidney function and see if you might need to be an inpatient to maybe check if its lack of fluid (in which case they could give you IV) or if its a different problem.
