Hi Taralv,
I have never heard of this side effect from cyclosporine. If it is happening every time that you take the drug, perhaps you are on too high a dosage or are having an allergic reaction???
It took about 4-6 weeks after ATG for my cyclosporine level to build up to a pretty toxic level while I was taking the higher dosage. Make sure that they are still checking your 12 hour trough level and that it is below 400.
Sorry that I can't be of more help.
