Today is the second anniversary of my heart transplant at Cedar-Sinai in L.A.
Everything is still moving along flawlessly-no rejection, and back to a high level of activity.
I'm now 67 & feel better than I have in years. I was very fortunate to receive my donor heart call only two days after being listed, and am on .025ml of Tacrilimus every other day + Cellcept twice a day.. Had some leg joint problems from Prednisone, but all have been resolved with PT & time.
I think that as well as a positive attitude, COMPLIANCE is key to a successful result.
I would be happy to answer any questions you might have.
Best wishes & good health to everyone in the coming years.

Dear Marc,
Congratulations on your second year transplant anniversary! What a wonderful gift to contemplate so very soon before Christmas. I too hope that this is only just the beginning of many new celebrations to come! I am glad that you are doing so well, and may this coming year prove to be a very good one for you. Best of wishes.
