Smile changing from cyclosporine to cellcept

Hi
I have SAA and have had ATG (rabbit) Sept 2010 and been taking cyclosporine since then currently 175mg a day(total) but my drs have been concerned about my kidneys as my GFR level is 39 plus my colesterol has gone way above the accepted rate (normally I am around 5 but now at 9.2) so it is of real concern along with high bp all due to my lack of tolerance to the cyclo so it has been decided that I need to go on statins and an alternative immunosuppressant called cellcept. I was wondering if anyone else was in the same situation as me and how their experience has been as I am really anxious of changing to cellcept. Currently my blood counts are pretty good h.b 12.5 platelets 197 and my other blood counts are in normal range thanks be to God.
Thankyou
Julie
