Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist and transplant surgeon,i can understand your anxiety.
After a transplant,it can undergo rejection at any time.
That's why you're taking anti-rejection treatment.You need a doppler scan.
If the creatinine levels don't return to normal levels,rejection is a possibility.
The steroid dose is low,probably because you're having low body weight.
You've not written dose of other immuno-suppressants,so can't comment.
If you've any doubts,send all reports and medication,as a direct question.
