My husband had a kidney transplant 2 months ago and is now dealing with excess

Fluid. Would like to know if any others have the same problem and if it will

Always be a problem or just temporary.

Hi, I'm 14month post transplant and I initially retained fluid, however as time moved on it sorted itself out and I've never been bothered with fluid rention since. Hopefully your husbands excess fluid reduces soon, however I'm sure his surgeon will ensure this isn't a long term problem. Best wishes.
