@VelezNephHepato @DrHarryDOesHep @KidneyBea_n @Fcabezarivera @Nhepatic Tac 3-5 and MMF 500 mg BID should be enough for most people unless high risk of rejection or previous rejection-liver wise

@VelezNephHepato Hepatologists never request URGENT dialysis……

@PerelmansPearls @Nhepatic Whoop is a subscription model. You may want to try it for a few months and see how you feel about it. I don’t use Apple Watch for fitness so it’s worth it for me but ultimately it’s personal preference. Whoop is much more about sleep and recovery than about logging cals/sessions

[George Therapondos @GeorgeT400]

@Nhepatic You are very kind @Nhepatic but I am certainly not an elite athlete. I do have both whoop and Apple Watch. I use Apple Watch only for notifications and whoop for sleep/recovery data

@shimulshah73 I would normally say relist and reTx but since LFTs appear to be normal it may be different. I have a similar pt who is now 8 years post and is well. She was relisted but didn't get a liver and she has always had normal LFTs- she has a stricture that has required occ ERCP/stent

So true!! Behaviors and attitude matter. Particularly in the healthcare space. Love it!

Hey @elonmusk,
Delivery numbers for Q2 cannot be real. My model Y has been ready for weeks but can’t get anyone to speak to me about delivery. I’m sure it was counted though.....Customer service has to improve!

Translation: NO NEW CASES of COVID-19 in Cyprus today for the first time since March 9!! That's how you first stop the spread and then re-open an economy

[George Ioannou @gnioannou]

Cyprus 🇨🇾 with almost 1 million people has only 13 #COVID19 deaths!
I’m biased but giving credit to my brother, Constantinos Ioannou, as Minister of Health 🙏🙏🙏

A surreal photo from #Athens. Pericles died from the plague in ancient Athens in 429BC. He is still suspected of carrying a virus... #coronavirus #COVID19

@Nhepatic @gnioannou @stevenbollipo @KapuriaMd We do eat healthy stuff but I don't think we get a lot of acai berries in Cyprus @Nhepatic. @gnioannou is being very innovative! Try a ginger root, turmeric, black pepper and lemon tea for immune boosting (no real evidence for this btw!)
