PSRI Hospital Kidney Transplant: troubleshooting and FAQs
Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for PSRI Hospital Kidney Transplant.
Troubleshooting tips
If you experience fever above 100.4°F, chills, or burning during urination after your kidney transplant, contact the PSRI transplant coordinator immediately at info@psri.net or call the hospital emergency line. These may be signs of infection or rejection.
For a sudden decrease in urine output (less than 500 ml in 24 hours) or rapid weight gain (more than 2 kg in a day), restrict fluid intake and notify your transplant team at PSRI without delay. Do not adjust immunosuppressant doses on your own.
If you miss a dose of immunosuppressant medication (e.g., tacrolimus, mycophenolate), take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Never double the dose. Log the missed dose and inform your PSRI transplant pharmacist at your next visit.
For mild tremors, headache, or stomach upset after starting new medications, keep a symptom diary and share it with your PSRI nephrologist during follow-up. If symptoms worsen or you develop vision changes, seek immediate care at PSRI.
Always carry your transplant ID card and a list of current medications. In case of travel, locate the nearest hospital and inform PSRI transplant team in advance to receive guidance on local care and medication adjustments.
