    I am on Prograf, Myfortic, Prednisone (of course ), Prandin, Fish oil, Bactrim, Multivitamin. I had my transplant in 2009, my prograf level is a little lower than the normal patient. My tac level is 2-3, where your normal is probably a bit higher. After my transplant they tried getting me to the "normal" range and I kept feeling worse. My nephrologist ended up doing a biopsy and found I had toxicity to prograf at those levels, so they backed me off a bit. My doc is good about that since I react so strange sometimes to the meds. I see you are a nurse, I work in healthcare as well. It's good and not good when you know what you are in for when they schedule tests. I used to do interventional radiology work.

    Can,t say I know a lot about Harry Bradshaw or where he is actually from. I think Bradshaw is actually an English name. Not too many of them in Ireland.

    Thank you all who took the time to welcome me here. It is great to communicate with people who are experiencing WG. At the hospital I attend I am the only case of WG they are treating. Ireland has a small population and as as WG is quite rare the chances of meeting or communicating with a fellow "sufferer" (hate that description but cannot think of another appropriate word to describe) are small. so it has been quite a lonely journey to date.

    Hi Mark
    We shipped most of our criminals to Australia years back. Maybe your ancestors got on the wrong boat. If they were still shipping criminals to Australia I would commit a crime right now to get out of here as the recession is starting to bite hard
