ATG, one week out...Yuck! Liver function question.

Hi everyone,

Well, it's been one week since my ATG treatment last week, and the procedure went very well. No serum sickness whatsoever and I was out of the hospital in 5 days.

I've just felt really weak the past couple of days. I crash on the couch at 9 AM after breakfast and wake up around 1PM in a complete fog with no ability to concentrate. Evenings are a little better, but I just feel really weird. I guess the stock question is: Is this normal?

My doctor also really whacked me with high-dose cyclosporin at the outset and has cut me off of it until Monday because my liver wasn't tolerating it. Has anyone else had liver issues with cyclosporin?

I just feel like my body is so beaten down right now.
