I had a liver transplant a year ago this month. I have always had a bigger stomach since my transplant which I thought would go away. My stomach gets really hard when I have to urinate, or after I eat and sometimes just randomly. I don't think is normal but my Doctors say there is nothing wrong. I had a scan of my stomach and it showed no fluids. Yet my ankles still swell up every single day. My toes and some of my foot is numb. I get tingling in my feet everyday, like they are asleep. I feel like I am pregnant most of the time with my stomach being so swollen. Is anya of this normal
once one has the incision, the abdominal muscles are weak and many patients have similar complaints as you. prograf may cause peripheral neuropathy which can explain the numbness symptoms--your docs might need to decrease youir dose or refer you to a neurologist for evaluation
