I went the clinic yesturday and they lowered my AntiRejection drug down to 100 mg 2x a day! It droped over 50 % and I have only had this kidney for three weeks. They did a pee test and there was no blood and no protein in it at all, not sure if I told everyone that I have 69 % kidney function now, haven't had that much in years! And the best part there is no sign of IGA in the new kidney, Yet! I saw on a post the other day that someone had IGA show up in her new kidney after three years, anyone else IGA show up in there new kidney and if so how long? The doctors tell me it could show up anytime or it could never show up again. I had a lot of flare ups with IGA so I thought that it would come back. But everyday I go without the disease is everyday I am greatful.
