my husband has been a kidney transplant patient two years ago , recently he is suffering from severe diarrhea which improved after lacteol forte but new red rashes appear on his back and stomach, he is equivocal for CMV IGm and currently elevated serum creatinine level 1.92 , any advice since am not able to reach his doctor now
Hi, CMV at this stage of Transplant is less likely since immunosuppression is at minimum at this stage (assuming it was reduced to minimum dosages). Besides, CMV IGM is not a good test to detect CMV infection after the transplant. Granted that, it is a good test before the transplant. Would suggest seeing Gastroenterologist at the same hospital as your Nephrologist. The rise in creatinine could be because of deny Chat Doctor. Regards
