Drop in GFR after Covid Vaccine?
I am on 3 immunosuppressants (
myfortic
, cosentyx and methotrexate). Despite this, my psoriasis is active and I am having flare-ups with my arthritis. Because of this, my nephorologist has instructed me to not get the covid vaccine.

Myfortic
Hi It is the second time in four months that I have had problems getting my prescription of
Myfortic
360. The chemist has had to call around different suppliers and each time has got me 2 x 180. That’s fine but it’s still crazy and a little worrying.

Post transplant GI problems for 6 months
Originally on MMF but changed to
Myfortic
because of these issues, but still not resolved. Had stool test and nothing inflammatory going on. Have hardly been out because of these issues, even missed a couple of transplant clinic appointments.

COCO, RAIN CLOUDS AND POKÉMON HUNTING
I am on a low dose of
Myfortic
, I continue with IVIg and I want to believe all traces of campylobacter have been obliterated from my bloodstream. For now, that’s enough.

GI issues
Hello, I'm just about 4 months post transplant, and my
myfortic
was changed to azathioprine due to my GI tract being unable to tolerate even the extended release form of Mycophenylate.

Myfortic and diarrhea
I had the opposite effect,
myfortic
stopped my diarrhea after suffering with other antirejection medications for over a year.

Movin' on up- 6.5 weeks
Switching to
Myfortic
from Mycophenylate has helped my stomach issues tremendously, which has also significantly helped my energy level. I've accepted that I'm going to be having issues for a while, so I'm just keeping a log for my team and managing my symptoms as best as I can.

Diabetes risk for transplantees
The other prob is that I have a prob with my
myfortic
which shows too high a reading on my bloods. I will take another test tomorrow to check. However the one thing I learned from my very good French Dr is that one in two post liver transplantees end up with diabetes.
