Throughout this period, you may experience various side effects that require management. Here are some tips to assist you in dealing with these challenges:

  • Keep a journal of all side effects – when they occur, what occurs, and severity. Your transplant nurses are there to help you manage these side effects. You must speak up to your nurses about any side effects.
  • Monitor your temperature – anything over 100.4 requires a call to your facility.
