Kidney transplant patient here, and I am not experienced in your issue, but I DO think that you should request a CMV test, specifically CMV by PCR. Also a BK viral test. I can't imagine that they didn't test for that. I would suppose some of your low markers are from diarrhea (especially the low sodium).
I don't have answers for you, but sure want to encourage you to press for some tests. I hate it when they through a drug at you, not knowing what the root cause is (that's just me...).
Blessings, and support is what I want to give you!
