Has anyone had a transplant without tac or cyclosporine?
I am worried about post transplant tremors as my studies/future job involve lots of very accurate drawing. As such, I was wondering whether it is possible to have a transplant without tacrolimus or cyclosporine, using other immunosuppression. Thanks.

Cyclosporine
Hi everyone! Has anyone ever been on cyclosporine?! It’s not for my asthma but is for cholinergic urticaria (hives/angioedema). If so I would like to know of your experience as I am scared to take it due to the side effects which sound awful!! Also worried as it’s an immunosuppressant and I might be

Hi, I have had issues with upper GI for well over 5 years, was taking Ranitidine but besides the recall - was probably not helping. My Gastrologist wants me to take a PPI or face surgery down the road to treat the hiatal hernia. I was wondering if anyone is taking a PPI and what their transplant doctors

Blepharitis
For many months my eyes tended to be a little itchy especially the right side but not tearing. I’ve had dry eyes for years and use cyclosporine eye drops. During a time of stress: my husband’s surgery and his car accident I developed a stye inside the lower lid. Optician prescribed drops and hot packs

Struggling after long period of remission
If I were needing treatment again for sero negative arthritis would they put me back on DMARD’s after 4 years without them? Previously took Sulphasalazine, Methotrexate, Hydroxychloroquine altogether then had bony erosions in wrist which was fused. Came off those and tried Leflunomide which I had a reaction
