Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 I just wanted to let everyone know how is doing. We went back to Vanderbilt on Jan. 3 for the ERCP and they removed the stent. Everything looked good with his bile duct. His blood work that day showed elevated liver enzymes. They did blood work again on Jan. 4 and scheduled a biopsy for Jan. 5. It confirmed was having a rejection episode. He received IV steroids Jan. 6, 7, and 8 and his labs were better on the 8. We got to come back home after the last dose of steroids. He had labs done locally today and we should know tomorrow or Friday how they were. Other than that, he is doing great. wife of UC/PSC 2000 J Pouch 2004 TX November 18, 2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Dear , I am glad that is doing better. The steriods will surely do the trick. I am currently having a rejection episode as well. Eating prednisone and loving every minute of it. The labs are getting better. The liver enzymes dropped again today. Now if I could just get off the steriods so I could sleep it would be great. Tell I hope he continues to do better. Ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Hi , I hope life after transplant only gets better for you and . I was just curious about how his transpland allows for him to still have ERCPs? If you have a Roux-en-Y I thought you couldn't. Does he have a duct to duct anastomosis instead? Best wishes, Martha (MA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
