Thanks Chandra for you post - I'm not on Cyclosporine but am on Prograf (tacrolimus). I take 1.5mg & 1 Mg daily - They recently lowered the dose from 1.5x2 - due to high levels in blood tests - which roughly correlated to the neuropathy now that I think about it. Maybe the Prograf is still too high - I'll make sure to take a hard look next visit.
Did you have neuropathy the entire time you were on Prograf or did it arise after a period of time? How long were you on it? How are you doing now - are you still on anything? Glad to hear it went away.
Best wishes,
Paul
