hi

it is most likely you have pulled a muscle or overstretched yourself but far better to be safe than sorry and I would advise you to contact your transplant team and discuss it with them and then if need be they can organise for you to go in and see them

good luck and best wishes

Hi Andrew thanks for your advice. The pain got a bit to much and was advised to go see them my tacrolimus level is very low and I've also got an infection around the liver.x

I'm really pleased you got this sorted - it is best to overlook these things or wait too long, all of the liver teams will be very helpful and supportive if you need to contact them

best wishes

I also had a liver transplant a couple months ago, after I was released from the clinic, i started having horrible back pain! I went to see one my team doctors and he told that because during surgery have to move your back ribs to make room for the surgery, he also told, it takes time for ribs to go back in place! , getting better but still have to take a pain pill every now and then! I hope this helps! Feel better!
