Tserdogan (sorry I don't know what your real name is),
I just got back from the doctor today. My labs have plateaued. WBC mid 2 range, Plts 70s, HGB has been dropping (dropped 1 point in a week), ANC 1000-1300.

The doctor said they see patients where their counts plateau like this and he is satisfied with where my counts are now. I am just frustrated because right after transplant my counts were basically normal and now I am back to worrying about "low" counts again.

Tonight is my last dose of Prograf and he is hoping once I get off the Prograf my counts will increase. Today is day +131.

I also have major issues with low Potassium and Magnesium. I receive 4 grams iv daily of Magnesium and 100 meq of Potassium daily. He hopes that this will get better too once I am off the Prograf.

I was started on a BP medication and since then my headaches are pretty much nonexistent. They are blaming my high BP on the headaches.

Cindy, thanks for the information!! I will tuck that away for future reference.
