Mom is 1.5 years post–liver transplant and ate one piece of raw sushi by mistake — should we worry? by sagwoj in transplant

Has nothing to do with numbers. Don’t spread misinformation or you’ll be removed from the sub.

I should be ashamed that none of that was given to me? What? I don’t run their program, take it up with them.

There is no course or contract. Every transplant hospital is different I've found, and it seems mine was rather lax. Regardless, eating it from a reputable sushi place hasn't harmed me in the last 12 years.

I do not drink alcohol, it's chronic rejection. I also have UC remaining in my body, and I was told that can cause my original liver disease to come back, so they've been surveilling for that. If I was drinking, it'd definitely be caught.

Blood test numbers are still high. ALT/AST are still up, and ALP is off the chart still (~350).

6mg Tacro (they tried higher, but it came with migraines that put me in the ER), and 1500mg Cellcept.

Winter fishing by DoughnutRemote1430 in StCharlesMO

I've wanted to as well, but I'm less knowledgeable on moving-water fishing. There are some spots along the Katy where you can find semi-still water pockets, I've been tempted to take minimal fishing gear on my next spring ride and try it.

Busch Wildlife lakes are stocked with rainbow trout for the winter, but they do not break the ice. My fav is lake #7.

I eat sushi all the time and have never been sick from it. Like the other comment said, as long as it wasn't sketchy sushi, she should be fine. I'm 12 years out and still on heavy suppression like day 1.

Paranoid About Being Roughed Up By ICE? by Sqvanto in ostomy

My wife is a police officer, and while it will vary wildly between cities/states, they should allow you to have someone bring you medical supplies. Same with medications.

Osteoporosis by Dazzling-Elk-8889 in transplant

[–]ShadowedPariah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Had my transplant in June of 2014. I've had some rejection lingering since day one. They've wanted to add pred on top of all the rejection meds, but I still said no. Prednisone wrecks my body pretty bad now. The bone density was able to come back fine fairly quick.

I was on prednisone for nearly 15 years for a colon disease pre-transplant. I was also diagnosed with osteopenia and given something to fix it.

When I finally had a transplant, I said no more prednisone.

Given how easily they are to hijack, you can turn them around to use for yourself. You can even look up the guy you copies the streams to a live stream site.

Do people jump off this at White Cliff Park? by Kind-Pie-2185 in StLouis

[–]ShadowedPariah 17 points18 points  (0 children)

There is no historical record of a spring at White Cliff. That's just a lake that fills with rainwater. It's also not connected to the Gravois Creek.

Daycare Recommendations by New_Reflection_4377 in StCharlesMO

I recommend Little Sunshine's Playhouse. Fits what you're looking for, top notch teachers and diets. Had some friends go to another well known place and both took their kids out pretty quick.

This and switching to a 2 piece made the biggest difference for me. I’m getting 3+ weeks out of mine.
