Body and joint aches

Alexc1972

Hello everyone,

Hope you are all doing well.

I'm 3 1/2 LT, and I am having excruciating joint pain behind my knees, wrists, and body aches.

I just want to check if anybody has experienced the same thing, because it has already been 3 years, and now the pain is really bad.

I'm not sure if this is a side effect of Tacrolimus or if I should check something else.

Thanks

I don't know if this is helpful, but I do know a lot of people who struggled with hyper mobility post liver transplant (myself included)

It caused a lot of joint pain and subluxations for me until I figured it out. Have you seen a PT? I'd also mention it to your doctor just to see if they have any ideas or directions to point you in to look into it further

Hi Alex, I had a LT 7 months ago and I’m experiencing the same pain. I believe it’s neuropathic. While pregabalin helps, it makes me extremely sleepy. I was wondering how others manage this, as I imagine it’s a common side effect. as is not a solution for the problem, but this helps.
