immunosuppressants
- through IV. This worries me for sure. Anyone here had to go through something similar?

Hi, I’m on Tacrolimus for immunosuppression. My son is getting married in Brazil (Alagoas state) on the east coast, I would like to go if possible. Does anyone know about vaccinations? I know I can’t have yellow fever (it’s a live one). How do Kidney patients cope with other vacs, rabies, typhoid,

Hughes Syndrome - November 2019
The future: currently, a combination of
immunosuppressants
(? One of the new ‘biologics’) and anticoagulants. But, maybe with time, a lessening of this “auto-immunity storm” P.S. To add to her diagnoses, Mrs JT developed cartilage problems – ‘polychondritis’ – which affected her trachea.

A randomised single-centre trial of inhaled liposomal cyclosporine for bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome post-lung transplantation.
Outcomes after lung transplantation are poor due to bronchiolitis obliterans. Since bronchiolitis obliterans is not readily demonstrated by lung biopsies, the term bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is applied, defined as a sustained forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) decline.

I'm new here and I have recently been diagnosed with Bechets Disease after a long medical journey of almost over 3 years.
