I started to felt alittle better beginning in my 3rd week post Tx. I remembering waking up one am and just feeling better and I just knew I was walking out of that damn tunnel for good. BUT, don't you just hate those BUTS, even after you start to feel better you will have bad days and then good days and slowly your bad days will disappear. It will be a very slow process but I am almost 10 months post now and I feel 1000000000% better than I did when I started to feel better.
Hang tough and before you know it, you'll be 10 months post Tx and you will be posting the same message.
