This happened at my facility as well. I ended up calling the main line and getting in touch with someone that way. Even then, they are busy and it takea forever for them to call you back.

I don’t know what your symptoms are, but if you feel it is rejection, go to Casualty I think they call it? Seriously. Just go. Tell them when you get there you are a transplant patient. When I go to Emergency here (at least in the transplant hospital) they will treat you like royalty in the Emergency Department. They know you are special. They will do every test. This has happened to me three times, and my other friend who was transplanted there too.

I got a nice list of ok over-the-counter cold meds from my transplant center which included Coricidin HBP (high blood pressure), Robitussen, Mucinex. Was also told Nyquil is ok.
