Thank you for responding.
Thankfully I am
not a diabetic, and many kudos to those of
you that have that to go through also. I
had an infection once that put my body
into an insulin dependent state for 3
months or so and following that diet along
with the kidney diet was no fun.
I'm 33, so possibly a little early for
menopause, but as we know sometimes the
body just does what it wants to.
My kidney failure was due to renal reflux.
When diagnosed at age 8 the surgery to fix
this was still new and the pediatric team
couldn't come to a unanimous decision on
whether or not to try it.
I've spoken with my doctor and she is
aware of another patient that has this
same over heating issue. I have been
doing research and am fairly positive this
is a side effect from the prograf. But I
am also unwilling to have my transplant
team "play" with the medications much or
switch me off it. I had been on celcept
briefly post transplant, but due to
extreme adhesions on my intestinal tract
and a surgery to fix a fused spot the drug
caused too many gut side effects for me to
live comfortably with.
While annoying and slightly embarrassing
the wet underarms is a minor problem to
deal with compared with life
pre-transplant, as I'm sure many will
agree with. Just wondering if someone has
figured out a way to combat and conquer.
